This is our campaign video for 2024. It’s a thought-provoking watch, but that’s exactly what we want it to be. Far too many men suffer in silence and are not able to talk openly about how they feel about themselves, their lives and the world around them. The stigma of male mental health needs to end. Man Down run talking meetings around Cornwall (UK) for men with mental health concerns. Meetings are run by male volunteers with lived experience of mental health. We run these meetings to help men talk to other men in a safe, supportive environment without judgement. Together we can eradicate the stigma of male mental health. We want this video to be shared far and wide. We want to make men understand that the trauma effect and the destruction left behind after a life is taken is unbearable and utterly devastating for everyone involved. We are so very proud to share this with you all. Huge thanks to Sam and Ben at @oateymedia who created this incredible story and brought this very poignant video to life. Check them out at https://oateymedia.co.uk/ Please help us continue to grow and drive forward into 2024 by acknowledging this campaign and sharing far and wide.

It was an absolute pleasure directing this, so proud to see it out in the world! Epic team on this with
Wow that hits hard brought a tear to my eye but that’s because if it wasn’t for man down I don’t think I’d be here to see 2024 so thank you because I don’t know where I’d be without man down
I didn't ask for this video to be presented to me, and I haven't googled suicide or mental health for my phone to really get inside my head. But I am so glad the universe somehow made me watch this. This really hit home and helped me to realise what I'm feeling right now. Thank you
That hit hard. Congratulations to everyone involved. Terrific casting too. Kudos to the three Actors who made this so powerful.
This broke me a little today. Such a powerful message, beautifully delivered by all involved. I'm so proud to be a part of such an amazing organisation. Thankyou ManDown, you are why I am still here 🫂❤
I'm a mental health worker....I'm really struggling with CPTSD. It's ironic isn't it. I'll be getting in touch. This is so accurate. We'll done its powerful and has motivated me.
Wow that is so powerful brought a tear to my eye well done to all involved let’s keep talking my about and supporting the men of Cornwall and even further a field proud to be part of something so amazing ❤
Really great work, both this film and the charity as a whole.
This is brilliant and really captures depression in males. Well done
Thank you for releasing this 🙏 I am someone who had a parent suffering from depression and suicidal tendencies throughout my entire childhood. If only if we had the same help available back in the day but its better late than never.
I have a SOn growin gup in this crazy world. This breaks my heart. Thank you for doing the good work.
I ‘ m a counsellor and this scenario unfortunately is familiar to me but beautifully shot , understated yet so powerful . Thank you !
Sat here crying imagining that was my little ones.... the constant thought of what it would do to them is the only reason I'm still here today. Don't know where I'd put myself in this video but I'd love to get closer to the man at the beginning rather than the end. 😢
This is such a powerful insight into how so many people live. Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve just shared it all over the world to my male friends. Man Down and everyone involved keep doing what you are doing. You are so needed and are doing such an amazing job. ❤️🪽
Great work Sam and all the crew: well done to the actors, and what an impactful Message to all for the New year! Brilliant.
