One of the reasons behind this startling statistic is that men in particular find it hard to talk about what troubles them.
This could be as a result of upbringing, status or good old fashioned Stigma.
The ManGang has been created to provide a safe place for men to come together and talk through their problems, issues and concerns and realise that they are not alone.
Through peer support and talking about problems, they will become easier to cope with.
