Man About Town

Man About Town reduces social isolation for men in South Leeds. The Leeds suicide audit published in 2016 found that men are almost five times more likely to end their own life than women which is higher than the national average of three to one.

The project encourages men who may be socially isolated and at risk of suicide to engage back in to the wider community through a series of creative, practical and fun sessions including both music and the digital arts, with activities such as gig buddies, vinyl picnics and music quizzes.
