Men's Health Week 2025

International Men's Health Week (MHW) always begins on the Monday before Father's Day and ends on Father's Day itself.  During 2025, it will run from Monday 9th until Sunday 15th June.

MHW is celebrated in many European countries, as well as in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and a number of other places worldwide.  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.

Each year, there is also a specific theme.  During 2025, the theme for the island of Ireland will be 'Shoulder-to-Shoulder: Connecting for Health'.

An island-wide MHW 2025 Planning Group is, currently, meeting to determine the resources and key messages for the week.  More details will be posted here in the near future.
