Speaking during men's mental health week 2022, mental health advocate Jake Dunn discusses his own mental health story, his involvement with men's mental health groups and what role volunteering and peer-support has in providing mental health care at a grassroots level.
Male identity is different for everyone, and Will and Jake talk from the perspective of their own lived experiences about some of the barriers they feel might prevent some men from seeking help - as well as what initiatives there are to encourage them to do so.
Then our conversation broadens out to ask what responsibility a health system such as the NHS has to provide services, and in the absence of adequate services, to what degree it is a community’s responsibility to step up to the plate and provide support at grassroots level.
