           Terrific news! The UK government has announced plans to introduce a national men’s health strategy next year. This has been a long time coming. Thanks to all who have raised awareness of #MensHealth and contributed towards this success.

             We are thrilled to share the news that after many years campaigning, lobbying and organising by our friends and members in the men’s health sector, this morning Health Secretary Wes Streeting formally told us there will be a men’s health strategy introduced next year. 
           The first ever Men's Health Strategy will be a key part of our 10 Year Health Plan. It will address the biggest health problems affecting men of all ages, which could include: ⚫ cardiovascular disease ⚫ prostate & testicular cancers ⚫ mental health  https://t.co/HCQLjjJdZm
