Men's health: We need to talk

On-demand | 45 mins

Health can be a difficult conversation for men. While every man is different, it’s a sad fact that men are more likely to be in poor health and die earlier than women - often for largely preventable reasons.

When it comes to physical health, men are less likely to seek healthcare than women and are more likely to ignore health issues. And when it comes to mental health, men are far less likely to talk about their feelings, or even recognise poor mental health in the first place.

With around 10.8 million men across the world facing a prostate cancer diagnosis , and three times as many men dying by suicide compared to women, there’s an urgent need to talk about men’s health.

This Movember, we’re shining a light on men’s health to raise awareness and encourage men to talk.

Join our live webinar to learn:

• The state of men’s health in the UK
• The key physical conditions affecting men, including prostate cancer and low testosterone
• Key facts around men’s mental health and how to seek help
• How employers and line managers can support their people
