It’s Men’s Health Week from 12th to 18th June! Men’s Health Week is celebrated in Ireland and many European countries, as well as in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and other places worldwide.
The overall aims of Men’s Health Week are to:
- Heighten awareness of preventable health problems for males of all ages.
- Support men and boys to engage in healthier lifestyle choices / activities.
- Encourage the early detection and treatment of health difficulties in males.
Ireland’s theme for 2023 is ‘The Picture of Health’. We often we set ourselves unrealistic or impractical targets – this year, everyone is being asked to set themselves a simple goal (or goals) to improve the health of men, and to go for it!
The Men’s Health Forum in Ireland have produced a new booklet ‘Action Man – ten top tips to improve men’s health’ – an online copy is available here to help give you the tools and DIY instructions to make positive changes and be our own ‘Action Man’!
