Did you know today is International Men's Day?

For 2023, the theme is “ZERO MALE SUICIDE” and highlights the shocking statistics that surround this. In a world that relies on technology for almost everything, the amount of human connection is ever decreasing. Amongst men in particular, that amount can be desperately low, leaving many to feel isolated and alone.

With statistics painting a dark picture of high male su***de rates, this International Men’s Day we want to offer some resources to reach those with no one to turn to.

With that in mind, we're excited to announce the launch of our Wellbeing Hub. A source of resources and advice from us and a number of external resources which is open and welcome to be used by anyone who needs.
