Why book this talk about Male Mental Health?

You may know that 3 out of every 4 deaths by suicide in the UK and Ireland are men.
But did you also know that:

 

  • In 2012 Samaritans warned that talking and talking therapy are not addressing the key factors associated with suicide in men [1]

  • Between 2010 and 2022, the rate of men using talking therapies increased by 50%, and yet the rate of male suicide also increased - by 14% [2]

  • The most effective treatment for depression is not routinely discussed with men who are suffering from depression [3]


...And would you like to know what to do about it?

It's time to start a conversation about male mental health that's actually useful for men.

Discover how hormones, lifestyle, and goal setting influence male mental health with this engaging talk from TEDx speaker Ryan Parke. Drawing from 1,000+ sources and his experience coaching men, this talk unveils groundbreaking insights, offering simple steps to support the men you care about. Whether you are a man, or simply want to understand the men in your life, Ryan will reveal: 

  • How all the biggest killers of men are linked and may be avoidable

  • The role that hormones play in male mental health and specific steps men can take for better wellbeing and resilience

  • Why the current approach to mental health isn't working for men and how we can make male mental health support more engaging, relevant and effective

Delivered through a combination of science, story and strategy, this fascinating talk is as positive as it is serious. You will leave with a deeper understanding of how lifestyle impacts male mental health, plus specific steps that men can take for better wellbeing, resilience and mental health.
