Men’s Health Week is a fantastic opportunity for men and their families to engage in activities that promote health, wellbeing, and connection within the community. This annual event offers a variety of programs designed to support men of all ages, including dads, grandfathers, mentors, and role models.
Throughout June, you can participate in workshops, fitness sessions, mental health talks, and social gatherings. Events range from beginner yoga and meditation to basketball and ocean dips, all aimed at encouraging men to take positive steps towards better health. There are also special sessions for dads and dad-like figures to connect with their children and peers.
Highlights include the Dad Matters session focusing on fatherhood and emotional wellbeing, mental health presentations by advocates, and practical training like Support a Mate. Many events are free or low cost, with some requiring bookings. Activities are held at various community venues including libraries, community centres, and parks across Kingston.
Events take place at accessible locations such as Ken Lyons Pavilion in Aspendale, Chelsea Library, Cheltenham Library, Aspendale Gardens Community Service, and Kingston City Hall. Most venues are well-served by public transport and have parking available. Check individual event details for exact addresses and times.
Bookings are essential for many sessions to secure your place, especially for workshops and talks. Some events are drop-in with a small fee donated to Beyond Blue. The program is inclusive, welcoming all men and male role models in the community. Light refreshments are provided at some events.
Most events are free or have a nominal cost. Bookings can be made online or by contacting the hosting venue directly. For further information or to register, email community@kingston.vic.gov.au or call relevant community centres. Early booking is recommended due to limited spaces in some sessions.
