Each year in the UK, 40 seemingly healthy children go to sleep and never wake up. There is no warning, no clear cause, and often, no answers. This heartbreaking reality is known as Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood - or SUDC - and it affects children aged between 1 and 18. Awareness of this medical tragedy remains low and there is currently no UK government funding. That’s where SUDC UK steps in.

With a mission to raise awareness, fund crucial research and support families affected

Fyodor Dostoevsky once wrote - “Every man is not only responsible for what he does but what everyone else does.”      This may not be popular, or even desired by many men but the character of a man who adheres to this principle will be far more resilient, balanced, courageous and responsible than a man who just chases

Masculinity can be described as a set of behaviours, attributes and roles associated with men and boys. Breadwinner, provider, leader, self-sufficient, and successful are just a few of the traits that come to mind. Whilst all these qualities are admirable, it’s a rather tall order that places a lot of pressure on the men of today - from adolescent boys trying to find their way in the world to men much later in life. Whilst men are fixating on living up to society’s expectations, are they really giving themselves the opportunity to know themselves? It goes for everyone really, if you

So fortunate we are to live in an age where every day we witness unprecedented advancements in medicine, technology, and science. No generation before now has had access to such groundbreaking innovations aimed at enhancing our health and wellbeing. Yet, despite this remarkable progress, we find ourselves amidst a global medical crisis with conditions like obesity and mental health disorders looming large. The convenience of such advancements often tempts us into sedentary lifestyles and reliance on ultra-processed foods, wreaking havoc on our health span.
