Weigh to Men’s Health

‘Weigh to Men’s Health’ is a workshop hosted by the All-island Obesity Action Forum supported by Safefood and the Ulster Cancer Foundation.  It will take place on Wednesday 8th June 2011, in the Stormont Hotel, Belfast, from 10.00am - 2.00pm.  The workshop will highlight that excess weight is a men’s health issue that needs to be recognised by men.  Presentations will discuss best practice in how to target men, and will provide examples of relevant projects on the island of Ireland and further afield.  The event will showcase the Ulster Cancer Foundation’s ‘ManAlive’ project - which is bringing life saving messages and health checks to men in the Southern Trust area of Northern Ireland.  The event will also facilitate networking and the sharing of information.  You can register online at: www.safefood.eu/en/Professional/Events/Weigh-to-Mens-Health
