Men in Scotland are more likely to die young than elsewhere in the UK. @MovemberUK's new report highlights that men in Scotland are up to 26% more likely to face premature deaths. We’re supporting their call for a men’s health plan to support their mental and physical health.
Thank you to @campbellclaret and @RoryStewartUK for supporting our campaign. Lack of government focus is one of the biggest barriers to improving outcomes for men. We are calling for a Men's Health Strategy. Support our cause at https://t.co/JIL7qTNCSP
