Movement, Music and Men's Mental Health

Movement, Music and Men's Mental Health: New Evening Event Brings Community Together in Support of Men Struggling Right NowThis November, a powerful new evening event will bring together dance, live music and grassroots community groups to open up conversations around men's mental health - and to show, in the most direct way possible, that no man has to face what he's going through alone.The event uses performing arts as its beating heart.

Original dance and music pieces - created and performed by various local artists and community groups, will explore themes of masculinity, connection and vulnerability, giving audiences a way into conversations that can be hard to start with words alone.Alongside the performances, local groups supporting men through football, walking groups and peer-support activities will be on hand throughout the evening - sharing practical, low-pressure ways for men to connect, get moving, and find support in their own communities.The evening will also spotlight the vital role that the women in men's lives - partners, mothers, sisters, friends, colleagues - play in supporting men's wellbeing.

The event will make the case that understanding between men and women isn't just good for men - it's good for everyone: better relationships, stronger families, healthier communities.
