Every twelve months, Wellworking staff choose a charity to support and fundraise for throughout the next year - for 2024, we have selected Men's Minds Matter.
This small charity is a suicide prevention and intervention organisation particularly focusing on men.
They specialise in delivering and developing psychological interventions to help reduce the worrying number of male suicides and to change the understanding of masculinity in society.
Key Facts:
Men make up 76% of all suicides in the UK
Every day, more than 13 males take their own lives
Across all age groups, men are more likely to die prematurely than women
To help tackle this, Men's Minds Matter have designed a lifesaving model which informs their work with people in crisis and is being used across the NHS. They also offer workplace training and contribute to vital research.
Men's Minds Matter & Wellworking
Through 2024, our staff will be taking on a series of challenges to raise funds for Men's Minds Matter.
In the past our fundraising has included marathon runs, long-distance cycles, bake-offs, auctions and much more.
