Men’s Health Week 2025 Postcards
Every year since 2014, there has been a Men's Health Week (MHW) postcard to publicise the week. Traditionally, these cards can be displayed as small flyers in public spaces, and are often sent by organisations to the men that they have contact with. This has proved to be a very successful means of letting local men know about the week.
Some groups have also used them as pledge cards (e.g. this year men can write on the card how they are going to connect to improve their health). Later on, they can keep this beside their desk, on their work bench, attached to their dashboard etc. to remind them of what they want to do and hope to achieve. However, simply posting a card to a man that you know will let them know that they are in your thoughts and that they are connected to the wider world.
The postcards are available in both hard copy and as online electronic files. To order hard copies of the postcard, send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. stating:

The front of the postcard has a similar design to the MHW poster, and the back has a pre-written message which says:
Hi there,
When males play sport together, or work on a communal task, we know what is meant by men standing ‘shoulder-to-shoulder’. They are unified, strong, resolute, focused, supportive and connected. They give 100% and do the best job that they can. Â
During Men's Health Week 2025, everyone is being asked to put these positive traits into action, and to work together to support the health of men and boys on the island of Ireland.
‘Connecting for Health’ is about: policy makers ensuring that men have the resources to live long and healthy lives; service providers offering appropriate tools, advice and support to males; men taking small practical steps to improve their own health; everyone looking out for and after each other ...
Stand shoulder-to-shoulder, connect for health, and have a great week!
