Male suicide is one of the most urgent and under-addressed public health crises of our time. 

In the UK, suicide is the leading cause of death for men under 50.

Globally, men account for the majority of suicides, yet male suicide remains under-researched, under-funded, and poorly addressed by current systems.

I want to change this – by turning rigorous evidence into practical action that saves lives.

“If it’s deep in your soul, that you can’t cope with this world, what do you do for people? What do you do?” 

Woman, UK, whose brother died by suicide.

We uregently need to support more men who are suicidal to access meaningful and fulfilling lives.

Through evidence-based research, interventions, policies, and public engagement, we aim to:

Advance knowledge: Conduct high-quality, impactful research to deepen our understanding of male suicide and inform actionable solutions. 

Effective interventions: Design and implement innovative, evidence-based interventions to reduce male suicide. 

Strengthen support: Strengthen the knowledge, skills, and ability of professionals, communities, and researchers to support men in crisis. 

Public communication: Ensure research findings are creatively disseminated to the public to increase awareness and understanding. 

Inform policy and systems change: Provide evidence to policymakers and institutions to improve national and international responses to male suicide.

Global collaboration: Foster partnerships across sectors and countries to address male suicide as a shared global challenge.
