2024 Men’s Health Week
Men’s Health Week (MHW) takes place from Monday 10th June to Sunday 16th June 2024.
In Australia, MHW provides a platform for organisations and communities to draw attention to the poor state of men’s health, organise meaningful activities and advocate for changes that improve health and wellbeing outcomes for men and boys.
If we are to create healthy, safe and respectful communities - we must invest in the health and wellbeing of the boys and men in our lives.
Frankston City Council is facilitating FREE events to celebrate Men’s Health Week in collaboration with local men’s groups, Mornington Peninsula Shire and Kingston City Council.
