November is Men’s Health Awareness Month! 
This month let’s focus on prioritising both physical and mental health both in the workplace and at home. Men’s health often goes undiscussed, but it’s essential to acknowledge that taking care of our well-being is a strength, not a weakness.
Here are a few key reminders:
FWA is engaging with the See Me Programme, a Scottish initiative aimed at ending mental health stigma and discrimination. With a vision of eliminating stigma, See Me seeks to foster a culture of understanding and acceptance for individuals experiencing mental health challenges.
Let’s encourage each other to live healthier, stronger lives.
