About the event
MEN’S MENTAL HEALTH SEMINAR: THE BEGINNING OF AN ONGOING CONVERSATION
On Saturday 19 September 2026, CIRC CIC held its inaugural Men’s Mental Health Seminar in Wolverhampton.
The event brought together civic leaders, health professionals, voluntary and community organisations, people with lived experience and local residents for an important day of learning, reflection and connection.
The seminar provided a welcoming and supportive environment in which people could speak honestly about men’s mental health. Discussions explored the barriers that can prevent men from asking for help, the effects of stigma and isolation, and the importance of making appropriate support easier to understand and access.
A central message emerged throughout the day: experiencing difficulty does not diminish a man’s strength. Speaking openly, asking for help and accepting support are acts of courage and self-awareness.
