- Thousands of men in the UK are dying prematurely due to a lack of focus on men’s health
- Two in five men die younger than they should, leading to 133,000 premature deaths annually
- Many deaths could have been prevented with better access to screening for diseases like prostate cancer
- Men are less likely to attend screenings or check-ups, putting them at risk of late diagnosis for illnesses
- Movember is calling for a dedicated men’s health strategy and a national clinical director for men’s health to address the crisis.
