Social worker warning on World Suicide Prevention Day</h2>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Finding "spaces" for men to talk about their feelings is vital a social worker warned as new figures show middle-aged males are significantly more likely to commit suicide.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
The rate per 100,000 for men aged 45-49 was 27.1 last year, compared to the UK average of 11.2 deaths per 100,000 according to the Office for National Statistics. For women of that age range the rate was 9.2 deaths.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Men of all ages were more than three times more likely to commit suicide than women with an average rate of 17.2 deaths compared to 5.4 per 100,000 for women.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
There was a 14 per cent rise in all male suicides and a ten per cent rise in all female suicides. However, the trend for both has been downward since 1981. The biggest increase in male suicides was among those aged 75 and over (up 32 per cent) and those aged 20-24 (up 31 per cent). </div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Social worker Andy Matthews, who runs a project supporting men with mental health issues through activities in Wales called Kim 4 Him, said: âThere is research saying men seeing services as being 'feminised' is one of the reason they donât engage. There is also the social stigma and the perceived gender role of men. Men will often chose other coping mechanisms instead of coming forward - the main ones are drink, drugs and suicide.â</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Matthews, who is carrying out a five-year PhD study looking at the gap in provision for men, added: âWhat I think will come from it is how we try and find those spaces where it is okay for men to have those conversations and seek the support they may need. It is that mindset which needs to change.â</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Kim 4 Him has proved successful in getting men to talk about their mental wellbeing through initiatives such as a breakfast club, a "football shed" and "mancraft" which includes electronics, gadgets and photography activities. </div>

Claire Barcham, chair of BASW's mental health practice, policy and education group, said the current climate of uncertainty could be impacting on people's mental health and contributing to the rise in suicide seen in the ONS figures.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
"The findings highlight concerns expressed by social workers in many sectors. There so many pressures on people today. Young people face concerns about their futures with changing opportunities and work patterns.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
"Men face uncertainty around changing role expectations and this may particularly affect middle-aged men who can feel dislocated from the world they are living in. Social isolation plays a part too with more people living on their own."</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Barcham added: "The current political turmoil around Brexit can only add to the confusion and uncertainty some people feel today.â</div>

A minister for suicide prevention was appointed last year in England after previous Prime Minister Theresa May identified poor mental health as a âburning injusticeâ.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Overall, there were 6,507 suicides in the UK in 2018. Scotland had the highest rate at 16.1 per 100,000. Figures for Northern Ireland are yet to be published.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
The highest regional suicide rate for men was in the North East with a rate of 20.4 per 100,000. For women it was Wales with a rate of 6.9.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Men in Wales were the second most likely to commit suicide (19.1 per 100,000), followed by men in Yorkshire and The Humber (19), the South West (17.7), the East (17.6), the North West 917), West Midlands (15.7), East Midlands (14.8), London 13.8). The South East had the lowest rate at 13.5. The biggest rate rise last year was among men Yorkshire and Humber (up 24 per cent).</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Yorkshire and The Humber also had the second highest suicide rate for women (5.7) matched by the South West, followed by the East (5.4), the North East (5.2), the West Midlands (4.9), the North West (4.8), the East Midlands and the South East (4.7 each) and London (4.1).</div>

A worrying 83 per cent increase in suicides among females aged ten to 24 and a 25 per cent rise in males of that age was reported, however figures were relatively low (3.3 and 9 per 100,000 respectively).</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
Nick Stripe, head of health and analysis and life events for the ONS, said: âWe saw a significant increase in the rate of deaths registered as suicide last year which has changed a trend of continuous decline since 2013.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">
"While the exact reasons for this are unknown, the latest data show that this was largely driven by an increase among men who have continued to be most at risk of dying by suicide. In recent years, there have also been increases in the rate among young adults, with females under 25 reaching the highest rate on record for their age group.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; box-sizing: inherit; color: #222222; font-family: MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: "liga"; font-size: 18px; hyphens: manual; margin-bottom: 1.44444rem; margin-top: 0rem; word-break: break-word;">

Not everything in life goes exactly to plan...the key is not to get too down when this happens and bounce back. A way of doing this is to have Plan B (C, D, E....) by thinking about what you are going to do and what might happen and how you can overcome setbacks. Celebrate when Plan A does work:)</div>

Today we traveled to the docks in Connah's Quay to take photos of the power station and road traffic bridge. We've included a few snaps below from our phones. The 'main' photos from the Canon camera will be processed and displayed at our Men's Art Gallery in the KIM Holywell Hub. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Alun and Tim reminisced about the 'old days' of the dock and how things have changed. Photography is a great excuse to get out to somewhere new, or old, on your own or with some buddies to enjoy seeing the world a different way. Every photo tells a story and holds memories. </div>

<span style="background-color: white;">Today, Scott (our admin and IT guru) celebrated adding another ring to the bark of his tree. I'm not saying how old he is...let's just say his car insurance (if he could drive) would have gone done a lot!!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today the men took part in a session
about car maintenance. Tim, one of the group members, is skilled with car
repairs and wanted to share his knowledge with the group. He has worked closely
with our group support worker, Dave, to arrange the session. He got everybody âhands
onâ with basic car checks and shared some top tips (and potential money
savers).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everybody learnt something new
about the mechanics â it was interesting to see how engines have changed over
the years. Tim has a great depth of knowledge and was able to let us know how
cars have developed, for example what oil types to use, spark plug
types and why I donât have a choke in my car anymore! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Today I had the pleasure of attending a planning away day with Amy and Annie in Rhuddlan. I regaled them with tales of databases and advertisement packs. I've never had a more enthralled audience. They asked lots of interesting questions and left full of wizardry joys. Or not! </div>

Seriously, it was good to take some time out and reflect on where we are at as individuals and a group. It's easy for life to overtake us, making time can be missed. When is the last time you took time to reflect?</div>

Annie showed us the local nature reserve after our meeting, it was great to see a new part of Wales. I love finding new things - it's a really nice walk if you are nearby. I've put the link at the top of the page. </div>

A group of men from KIM 4 Him have started their own Monday afternoon group called "Inner Geek". They wanted a space to talk and share interests and hobbies with others. This group gives everybody the opportunity to discuss everything from F1 to Apollo 11. Anything goes!<br />
<br />
The guys learnt the basics of X-Wing today. They had a lengthy 'battle' with the table role playing game, the Galactic Empire TIE Fighters just about destroying the Rebel Alliance X-Wing. Bad luck to one player who got shot down in the first round!<br />
<br />
The group has been going for 2 weeks and already has activities ranging from PS4, Raspberry Pi, Chess, Top Trumps and Star Wars.<br />
<br />
The men want to bring items in with them to share - it's great to see things we've maybe not seen for a while. It's also great for the different generations in the group to share hobbies from when they were a kid...Subbuteo is coming soon!!<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fate was trying to conspire against us as the two members of staff that were supposed to be cooking went off sick!

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As ever, a wonderful meal was produced and all the group enjoyed the full English experience. Unsurprisingly, the waft of bacon drew other team members from their office slumber into eating and chatting.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">Expectation
is something we all deal with all day, every day. Whether it be parents, bosses
or maybe even friends. We are expected to be doing something.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The first subject of the matter I will be
going into is indeed the dreaded by many, parents. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">Even
from birth parents have expectations from their children. While they may never
admit it, they all have an image of sorts of what they wish for their child to
be. My parents never told me what to be, instead letting me find my own path in
my education. They had expectations of me, which helped me get the main two,
English and Maths out of the way completely.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I got enough grades from my initial GSCEs to get into college. Now,
college was one of the ideas thrown at me from my parents. They offered many
suggestions, jobs, apprenticeships, however college was the pick for me. After
which they supported me during my college years, as I went through some
troubles during the first year which I wouldnât have gotten through without
their support. Theyâve never had any real expectations of me, in terms of what
they wanted me to actually be, rather leaving that for me to discover. However
they have always had the expectation for me to succeed. To my knowledge, I have
succeeded to meet their expectations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now
it moves on to their current expectations of me in terms of career. While I
want to pursue a career in creative writing, they are supporting me as much as
they can to be able to live that dream of mine. <br />
<br />
Along with parents come the next subject, Teachers and Bosses. To any
youngster, teachers may as well be their bosses. Viewing what they saw as law
and obeying it to the dot. In terms of behaviour I always respected my
teachers, being sure to never cause trouble and for the most part I never did.
Homework was another matter entirely however I always got all classwork done in
time, if not sooner.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In my experience,
although teachers get paid the same either way, they do their best to make sure
their students are performing the best they can. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>During my entire high school learning my
teachers had high expectations of me, most I met in terms of grades. Then I get
to sixth form. I took ICT, Health and social care, Computer aided design and
Business studies. While I was able to do the tasks set for me, I began to
develop some awkwardness in social situations. And since I was in a room full
of other people everyday I fell behind in my work, finding myself completely
unable to concentrate while surrounded by others. I was soon to fall out of
said sixth form, as I was not able to keep up with the expectations that my
tutors had of me. After that I joined a military training club, where I stayed
for a few weeks and quite enjoyed the experience. There were quite low
expectations of me as I was quite weak, however I did what I could and
performed to the little expectations I had. The trainers there were able to
help keep me motivated too, allowing me to push myself to the limits I had.
Unfortunately due to my eczema I had to drop out, learning at the same time I
was unable to join the Royal Air Force for the same reason. That was quite a
big hit to my motivation as I had wanted to be that for quite some, so I chose
to go down another route in the form of IT. I took a level 3 IT course at
College Cambria, where there were extremely high expectations of me. For a good
reason, I was able to do the work there with ease. For the first half of the
year I aced everything set of me and got the highest grades achievable that was
what everybody had expected of me. However soon I began to lose motivation,
deciding for myself that I donât need to pass through distinctions and could
instead just pass with, well, a pass. This is where I began to once more fall
behind my expectations, as my tutors had expected me to achieve distinctions in
every assignment and knew I was capable of doing so. As time passed their
expectations shrunk to match my work, and that is where it stayed<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span> ever<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>since.<br />
<br />
My third point is friends. Friends will always expect things of somebody, as
youâll usually fall under one category or another. I fell into a more twin
category, where sometimes I was silent and anti-social, and others I was
out-going and silly. As such they always expected one of the two and I found it
difficult to be anything that wasnât expected of me. I always found
expectations from friends were one of my strongest motivators, as expectations
from those we like, we are usually more inclined to live up to. Even online I
am known as a more silly person, where those twin categories come in once more.
Along with friends comes the most important expectations, self-expectation. I
have always had low self-expectations, only then be decently surprised when I
surpassed them. It was a great way to motivate myself as it would always give
me a good feeling that I was doing well. My self-expectation for one thing
however, gaming, has always been outrageously high. I needed to be the best at
my favourite game for most of my life, World of Warcraft. Though recently I
have stopped playing it, up until then I was a high performing player and had
achieved many things that kept me going. Once I quit that, I found I that it
was a boost to my life as I could focus on other things. Overall,
self-expectations keeps a person going. If a person has high expectations of
themselves then they will be more motivated to perform to please themselves,
however those with low expectations like myself are more than happy to pass
even by the barest means.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">Expectations
of gender are another topic of discussion that many try to avoid. While I am
not exactly the most masculine male on the earth, there are certain things than
men just donât do. One of these things is talk about more personal problems.
While women, in my experience, have been quite open about this subject. Men too
have these problems that most try to hide, at least from other men. Iâve found
that women are able to make a man bring out that side of them far easier than
men can. It is expected of them that they are the âstrongerâ of the two genders
and therefore can handle their problems alone. Another problem are subtle
things, such as the way the different genders walk. Typically it is assumed
women walk with more of a sway than men, and that men just, well, donât care
all that much for how they walk. To add to the different expectations of
gender, women are expected to wear make-up and different products to make
themselves look more beautiful, while it is frowned upon for men to do the same
thing. However thatâs not the worst thing in the world, as men can use products
such as shaving cream and are allowed beards to stylise or to simply grow out
or even shave. Women are expected to shave elsewhere, such as under their arms
as well as their legs. While for men it is expected to not shave those areas,
and sometimes even compare how hairy it is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Fridays are the community day at our Hub in Holywell and open to all members of the community to drop by and join in.</div>

Today we had the newly formed 'Women's Workshop' running alongside our 'Men's Shed'. Our group support worker, Dave, was around to support the new men that arrived today. The men find this relaxed time at KIM a nice introduction to our service and many go on to do additional work with our KIM 4 Him service.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The kitchen produced a fab Chinese inspired menu today - the home made prawn toast was amazing. Although I confess to needing (but not having) a nap in the office afterwards. Always great value at just ÂŁ2.50 for a main course (ÂŁ3.50 with a pud). Come along and try - families welcome :) maybe bring your partner to see KIM ?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We had a surprise visitor in the afternoon that gave Dave more of a handful than he had in the Men's Shed...</div>
