We are very fortunate to have Andrew from The Sons Of The West program to attend our club for a social/casual evening to talk to the males at our club about “The Sons Of The West” program on Mens Health.
In 2013 the Western Bulldogs Football Club commenced development of a Men’s Health Program designed to promote health and prevent disease in men aged 18 + living or working in the West of Melbourne.
Sporting organisations have an important role to play in addressing key areas of men’s health and well-being beyond the elite level. The reach of sport, especially AFL into Australian communities makes AFL clubs a significant candidate to achieve organisational, attitude and behavioural change that improves health in communities especially for men.
Andrew will explain the program and what it involves, it covers all areas of mental health incuding increasing physical activity, raising awareness of anxiety and depression, the importance of screening for cancers and much more.
