Today is #internationalmensday - the theme of which is "positive male role models", so we thought we'd share ours.... YOU.
We're lucky at MWT to be inspired by amazing male role models almost constantly. So to everyone who shows up each week, both for themselves and for each other: thank you! And to all those reading this post anxious about taking the first step, we say to you: you're very welcome.
We're here every step of the way to help you feel safe, supported and part of the MWT community. To join us for a free online group, simply head to menwhotalk.org 👏
A reminder to all, speculation on the cause of death, or the troubles facing a person shortly before the end of their life go only to traumatise those left behind. Every loss of young life is tragic. Intimate details of emergency phone calls & pictures should never be broadcast.
It’s important to remember the media guidelines set out by organisations such as @samaritans and @MindCharity . Grieving families & the deceased deserve respect & privacy, regardless of celebrity status. For anyone facing a challenge, please always know that help is there.
Thanks to the generosity of the fund, and all those who play the lottery, the future of MWT isn't only now more secure, but also exceptionally brighter. Our mission to help every man in the UK with their mental health and wellbeing is a bold and ambitious one.

This is hugely positive news. The last parliament started murmurs around addressing the crisis facing men & boys’ mental health, we greatly look forward to working with the new parliament & @APPGMenBoys to turn those murmurs into meaningful policy change!
It is deeply distressing to see the current political attacks on those suffering with their mental health, especially the trivialising of depression and anxiety. The reality is, many people are desperately trying to seek treatment for their mental health problems but are stuck.
We call on the government to urgently reassess these plans, and actually listen to all those working in this space and individuals genuinely struggling, as to how they can create meaningful changes.
