Men’s mental health: the challenge no one disputes

Men’s mental health is a pressing issue that often goes unnoticed, with societal norms pushing men to appear strong and emotionally unyielding. Yet, the statistics reveal a troubling truth: men face significantly higher suicide rates and are less likely to seek help. The Emotionally Respectful Men (ERM) programme aims to challenge these harmful stereotypes by fostering a healthier, more expressive masculinity. By creating safe spaces for dialogue and emotional education, we can empower men to break the silence surrounding their mental health. Discover how we can work together to transform the narrative and promote genuine emotional well-being.
