Call for evidence description
This call for evidence will inform the development of a Men's
Health Strategy for England. It seeks the views of the public, as
well as health and social care professionals, academics,
employers and stakeholder organisations. We're particularly
interested in the lived experience of all those directly affected
by men's health issues.
We know that men face unique challenges throughout their lives.
Men are disproportionately affected by a number of health
conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular disease and type 2
diabetes. Life expectancy data also shows that men live on
average 4 years fewer than women (79.1 versus 83.0 years in
England, respectively).
Rather than a formal consultation on specific proposals, this
call for evidence is a request for ideas and evidence that the
government can build upon and discuss further with key interests.
The call for evidence is available to individuals aged 16 and
over living in England and organisations that operate or provide
services in England.
There is also a British Sign Language
(BSL) version of this call for evidence, which is
available to individuals.
The easy read version of
this call for evidence opened on 19 June 2025 and will be open
for 12 weeks.
