Men have distinct health concerns separate to those of women; in addition many complaints that may affect women are more severe in their male counterparts. Part of the reasoning behind this is the reluctance to discuss health concerns with anyone. The men’s health programme is designed to be delivered by men for men to encourage discussion and where necessary build capacity to take practical steps to improving one’s health.
