Objectives

4 The organisation?s purpose is to save lives by reducing incidences of male suicide. This will be achieved by: 4.1 providing information, support and advice to men of any age who are in crisis. 4.2 raising awareness and challenging the culture where men feel unable to talk openly and seek help when needed. and 4.3 growing throughout Scotland to encourage the development of a network of community hubs and a men?s wellbeing centre for men to get together and talk in a welcoming, non-clinical environment.
