Event: Men's Health Week, from 15 June 2020 to 21 June 2020
Monday 15th June marks the beginning of Mens Health Week. Team AWARE in collaboration with our friends at Place Proud, will be using this opportunity to shine a light on mens mental health issues.

Story

There's a stigma surrounding mental health in Northern Ireland, with a mounting pressure on men to Man Up. Men are less likely to open up to their family and friends about their struggles with mental health, which can have worrying consequences. In fact, suicide is the leading killer of men under 50 in Northern Ireland with 1 in 3 men have experienced suicidal thoughts as a result of feeling stressed. I am standing up for men's mental health by supporting AWARE's #StandUpForMen campaign this week, funds raised will go towards the development of an awareness programme tailored specifically for men. I appreciate any amount you can give. Thank you!
