It’s Men’s Health Week and we’re shining a light on the everyday choices that help men thrive.

Our latest blog explores the 4 key pillars of men’s health that support both body and mind:
- Food: Fuel your body with balanced nutrition
- Fitness: Move regularly to support strength and mobility
- Focus: Prioritise mental wellbeing and emotional resilience
- Rest: Give your body and mind the recovery time they need

At New Ability Health, we believe that real health goes beyond check-ups. It’s about creating habits, routines, and environments that support men at every stage of life.

We’re excited to invite expressions of interest for a group social program designed for anyone who wants to make connections, have fun all while also developing social skills.

The program will use Dungeons & Dragons (DnD), a collaborative storytelling game where players create characters and work together to overcome challenges in an imaginary world, guided by a facilitator called the Game Master. Unlike a traditional board game, DnD doesn’t use a game board! Instead, it relies on imagination, dice rolls, a pencil and a paper character sheet to shape the adventure. It’s part game, part improvisational theatre, and part problem-solving.

Program Details:
- 2 hour time slot - Hosted at our Hudson Street clinic (New Ability Health)
- Group capped at a maximum of 8 participants
- 6 sessions across 12 weeks (fortnightly)
- Facilitated by our Game Master and Provisional Psychologist Daniel

Note: New Ability Health is an NDIS registered provider. For NDIS Participants, this social support group may be covered under your NDIS plan. Please check the details of your plan and discuss with us.
