Man Down: It’s a thought-provoking watch, but that’s exactly what we want it to be.

Far too many men suffer in silence and are not able to talk openly about how they feel about themselves, their lives and the world around them.

Suicide is 100% preventable and the stigma of male mental health needs to end.

Man Down run talking meetings around Cornwall (UK) for men with mental health concerns. Meetings are run by male volunteers with lived experience of mental health. We run these meetings to help men talk to other men in a safe, supportive environment without judgement.

Together we can eradicate the stigma of male mental health.

We want this video to be shared far and wide. We want to make men understand that the trauma effect and the destruction left behind after a life is taken is unbearable and utterly devastating for everyone involved.

We are so very proud to share this with you all. Huge thanks to Sam and Ben who have created this incredible story and brought this very poignant video to life.

Please help us continue to grow and drive forward into 2024 by acknowledging this campaign and sharing far and wide.
