Men’s Health Week 2026

Let’s listen, let’s talk, lets support for Men’s Health Week. From the 15th -21st June we are shining a spotlight on the unique health concerns impacting men. While men’s health matters every day, it has never been a more important time for males to share their mental and physical experiences to raise awareness. 

Men’s Health week is organised by the Men’s Health Forum, a UK charity dedicated to improving men’s health. This years theme is ‘Men and Pharmacy’.

Why Men & Pharmacy Matters

Many men still delay seeking advice or ignore early symptoms. Pharmacies are positioned to change this. Too often, men are less likely to speak up or seek support when they need it. Pharmacies play a key role in educating men about their health by leveraging their accessibility, trust and professional knowledge. Men’s Health Week empowers men to take control of their wellbeing by visiting their local pharmacy for quick, accessible, and professional health support.  With men statistically less likely to seek medical help, pharmacies offer a welcoming, confidential space to discuss physical, sexual and mental health issues early.
