International Men’s Day – Sunday 19 November
International Men’s Day is marked on Sunday 19 November. The purpose of this day is to celebrate the positive values men bring and to raise awareness of men’s well-being, especially in relation to the international male suicide rate. The theme for 2023 is “ZERO MALE SUICIDE”.
You can find out more at https://ukmensday.org.uk/ or at https://internationalmensday.com/. Please note there is a powerful video about the impact of suicide on this latter webpage which some may find quite upsetting & challenging to watch.
Here are some useful contacts that can provide the appropriate support and information.
As a reminder, ministers and their partners do have access to the Churches Ministerial Counselling Services for support on www.cmincs.net
