Motion Text

That this House acknowledges that Men’s Health Week takes place each year in the run up to Father’s Day, and in 2025 is between 9 and 15 June; is concerned that currently one man in five dies before the age of 65; is further concerned that four in five suicides are by men, with suicide being the biggest cause of death for men under 35; notes that too many men ignore health issues such as prostate and testicular cancer until it is too late; recognises that Men’s Health Week is an important opportunity to raise awareness and break stigmas about physical and mental health issues among men of all ages; and encourages men to prioritise their health, seek preventive care, and engage in conversations about their physical and mental wellbeing.
