The government has published England's first-ever Men's Health Strategy, responding to what health secretary Wes Streeting describes as a "crisis in men's health that ripples through families, workplaces and communities".

The initiative aims to deal with the physical and mental health challenges specifically facing men and will tackle issues such as suicide, alcohol abuse and problem gambling.
