ABOUT

'CHECK THE MALE'

Men of Malvern Inc. is a local group supporting the health and welfare of men. Established in 2013, Men of Malvern have previously hosted health forums as has the

The two groups have come together to offer our communities an opportunity to access important health knowledge 
 
In the lead up to Father's Day 2021, we’re excited to present our next health forum
 
‘Check the Male 2021’
 
Our event is about offering our community an opportunity to access important health knowledge in open environment where both men and their partner’s are welcome, covering a range of important issues relevant to both men and women.
