Premier League health is an encouraging and highly appreciable effort of Premier League,but I was wondering that would Premier League focus on certain specific physical ailments common in men and if Premier League plans to work on specific male health issues what are they kindly specify?

Answer 1

Premier League Health will see 17 of the clubs currently in the Premier League work with local health agencies such as Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) to engage over 4,000 men. The project will aim to tackle issues as diverse as depression linked to unemployment, obesity and general poor physical health, as well as alcohol and substance abuse. It will target men aged 18 and over, with many clubs placing NHS health trainers within the stadiums themselves, taking referrals from local GPs.
