- Barbers in north London are tackling black men's mental health, one haircut at a time.
Barbers at five barbershops in Islington are being given specialist training to spot and help customers struggling with their mental health - providing a safe space talk and guiding them towards long-term help.
According to charity Mind, young black men and boys are far more likely to be diagnosed with a serious mental illness than compared white men.
The scheme, being delivered by Islington Council, is part of a three-year programme aimed at improving young men’s mental health and tackling inequality.

It is really nice to hear that these men don't mind lending an ear to hear the burdens these young men.
It's okay to speaking about your problems, it helps you identify issues. And as a result you can act appon them.
I heard someone say this today, "The more you tell a story today the less power it has." So don't let your problems silence you
You are gona crazy ? Get haircut 😂
andrew tate said it best, if you want to be successful you will not get anywhere complaining about your mental health
men can't complain about their health, you don't have the luxury to because whilst your sitting complain someone else's is working
don't let them emasculate you, I learned this the hard way, never show weakness because a weak man is a useless man
I can tell from your comment that you lack basic empathy/sympathy for others.
