Men’s Health Week 2016 Resources 'Sold Out'

To promote Men’s Health Week (MHW) in Ireland this year, 47,000 'Challenges and Choices' Man Manuals, 7,000 posters and 12,000 postcards were produced and disseminated.  We are delighted that Martin O’Neill (Republic of Ireland Team Manager) and Michael O’Neill (Northern Ireland Team Manager) generously agreed to be the ‘face’ of the week by starring in this nationwide campaign.  Unfortunately, all of these materials have now been given out, and the Men's Health Forum in Ireland (MHFI) has no hard copies left.  However, you can still download the posters in a range of electronic formats from www.mhfi.org/mhw/mhw-image-pack.html and read a low resolution PDF of the Manual by clicking here.

Staying Fit for Farming Booklet

Men's Health Week each year encourages everyone to reflect on their health and wellbeing.  Men, who are farmers, often overlook the most important element to good farming - themselves.  The 'Staying Fit for Farming' booklet is about looking after yourself.  It looks at different situations and illnesses, and sets out how you can spot problems early.  In this booklet, some farmers tell their stories - not to make you worry, but to make you act.  To view a Portable Document Format (PDF) version of the booklet, visit: www.hsa.ie/eng/Publications_and_Forms/Publications/Agriculture_and_Forestry/Staying_Fit_For_Farming.pdf

What's Happening in Ireland During Men's Health Week 2016?

Every year there are many events and actvities held across the island of Ireland to mark Men's Health Week (MHW).  The Men's Health Forum in Ireland (MHFI) always seeks to promote the details of activities or events that are being held throughout the week on this website.  It is hoped that this will help everyone to find out what is happening, where it will be taking place, and how to join in.  It also gives some recognition and publicity to all those groups across the island that are doing something for and with men.  There are three ways to let us know about what is happening: online registration form, email form, snail mail form.  Find out about some of the events being held to mark Men’s Health Week 2016 (#MHW2016) in Ireland by visiting: www.mhfi.org/mhw2016events.pdf
