Millwall Community Trust are proud to be supporting Men’s Health and Mental Health Awareness Month.
For the month of November, the focused campaign is Men’s health and Mental health Awareness. This campaign ties in with both International Men’s Day UK Tuesday, 19 November and Movember.
These campaigns aim to bring awareness to a wide range of men's health and mental health issues.
International Men’s Day UK provides a platform to focus on the wellbeing of men and boys, support charities and hold a positive conversation around men’s health and mental health.
‘Movember' takes place every November, to raise awareness and funds for men's mental health, suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer.
With the very worrying continuing increase in male suicide (4,188 male suicides in England 2023), statistics showing 1 in 8 men in the UK will be diagnosed prostate cancer in their lifetime and diagnosis of testicular cancer increasing, it is crucial that we continue to raise the platform of men’s health and mental health topics to provide essential knowledge and safe spaces to talk more about these issues.
