Mate, are you doing alright? 🧡

This Men's Health Week, we're talking about something simple but powerful: checking in on each other.

You don't need to be a counsellor. You don't need all the answers. Sometimes the most important thing you can do is ask the question — and then actually listen to the answer.

The ALEC approach:
🔹 Ask — "You haven't seemed yourself lately, are you OK?"
🔹 Listen — without judgment, without trying to fix it
🔹 Encourage — gently point them toward support — a GP, a helpline, a trusted mate
🔹 Check in — follow up later. A text. A coffee. Let them know you haven't forgotten.

A five-minute conversation can be the thing that gets someone through their
worst day.
