MR PORTER Health In Mind
At MR PORTER, we’re of the opinion that looking good on the outside doesn’t count for much if you don’t feel good on the inside, too. That’s why we founded MR PORTER Health In Mind, an initiative dedicated to helping men lead happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.
One of the biggest challenges we face is normalising conversations on mental health – or, to put it simply, talking to each other about how we’re feeling. In that spirit, MR PORTER is making a commitment to raising awareness around physical and mental health via an ongoing programme of content in our online magazine, The Journal.
Through our charity partner, The Movember Foundation, we’re also pledging to raise money for men’s mental and physical health initiatives. Please see below for more details.
