Men's Mental Health
Men's Mental Health
Event Date: Wed 22nd Nov, 12 noon
Presenter: Steve Heath
Description
This powerful session looks at mental health through a male lens - focussing on prevention, early intervention and health promotion. The rate of male suicide is alarmingly high: 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK are by men.
This session considers how we can work towards a world where men take action to be mentally well, and are supported by those around them; and where men and boys are comfortable having conversations about the big things in life. This session is aimed at men - and at anyone who has men and boys that they care about, and live or work with.
By attending this presentation delegates should be able to:
- Identify the early signs of mental ill health in men and boys (and themselves).
- Understand how to start a conversation about mental health
- Support men and boys to access appropriate help and support
- Understand the importance of helping men and boys to stay mentally healthy, build strong connections and take action early when times are tough
- Be a part of the conversation on men's mental health.
