When you see statistics like this one, it is easy to see why weeks such as Men's Health Week are so important for men in Australia!

Preventable diseases can sneak up on you and change your whole life in an instant. Preventing this can sometimes be as easy as small daily changes to lower the risk of disease.

Don't wait to make changes in your life. Find your why and make sure you are doing all you can to lower your risk of preventable diseases impacting your life!

Do any of these look familiar?

This Men's Health Week, let's shine a light on those symptoms that can sometimes be overlooked by men, as well as those around them!

Have a look at the image below and think, do any of these apply to me? If so maybe it's time to get checked!

Look after yourself and don't overlook small symptoms - if you catch something early you might be doing yourself a huge favour!

Walking Group is ON this morning!

If you didn’t make it out for a walk yesterday because of the miserable weather, join us this morning at 8.45 to get your steps in!

This week is Men’s Health Week and we would love to see as many of our community as possible out enjoying a walk and looking after their health! Walking is one of the best ways to get some exercise in whilst still being able to stay social and catch up as well! 🚶‍♂️👍

Welcome to Men's Health Week 2026!

Men's Health Week takes place internationally from 15 June to 21 June 2026 in many countries around the world including Ireland, the UK, Canada, Australia and the United States.

The overall aims of the week are to:
- Heighten awareness of preventable health problems for males of all ages.
- Support men and boys to engage in healthier lifestyle choices / activities.
- Encourage the early detection and treatment of health difficulties in males.

Men make up 50% of the population and deserve to have a gender lens focused upon their specific health needs. A male is a brother, a father, a grandfather, a son, a boyfriend, a husband, a partner, a kid, an uncle, a grandfather.

This week, the Community Hub is partnering with local organisations to bring awareness to the importance of Men's Health! Make sure you take some time this week to have the important conversations with the men in your life. Keep an eye on our socials this week for some important men's health facts and resources!

We had an awesome start to the week on Saturday, with our community football event at the Oval! A huge thank you to Mind over Masculinity, TasteLife, SAPOL and both the junior and senior football leagues for joining us on this day and making it another great event!

We can't wait for the rest of the week 🩵💙🩵💙🩵💙
