Rap artists help put spotlight on men's mental health
Briefly

The EmpowerMENt Week, organized by United Colleges Group (UCG), emphasizes the importance of mental health awareness among men, particularly recognizing the lower levels of life satisfaction reported by males compared to females. With only 36% of NHS talking therapies referrals being male, the initiative addresses the gap in seeking help. Featuring workshops and a panel discussion, the event encouraged dialogue about mental well-being, with rap performances highlighting themes of resilience. Diana Brown noted that while female students actively seek support, male students often do not, prompting the need for targeted initiatives like EmpowerMENt Week.
