When young men speak, change happens.
The NSW Parliament’s Inquiry into the Impacts of Harmful Pornography confirmed what our boys have been saying for years — pornography is shaping how young people understand sex, relationships, masculinity and consent.
“It’s just too easily accessible for everyone to have… it can affect our mental wellbeing and also our physical wellbeing.”
“There’s no actual way to get rid of it completely… education is the best workaround.”
Top Blokes and the young men we work with were recognised for elevating young male voices and helping shape key recommendations — from early, age-appropriate education to programs co-designed with young people and better support for parents and teachers.
“Many of the young men we mentor tell us they want to talk about pornography but shame, stigma, and a lack of trusted adults make it difficult.” – Melissa Abu-Gazaleh
This is what happens when young men are heard. Education over censorship. Conversation over shame.

Recently, Hayden, Rafay and Ethan took the Hon. Rose Jackson, NSW Minister for Mental Health and Minister for Youth, for a walk and a chat about what’s really going on for young blokes today.
They shared how they look after their mental health, what helps when things get heavy, and why it’s so important to keep these conversations going.
We’re proud to be supported through the NSW Government’s Men’s Mental Health and Suicide Prevention grant, helping us deliver more programs and reach more young blokes across the state.
Big thanks to @rosebjackson for taking the time to listen, connect and show young men that their mental health matters.

Leadership starts with you.
Through the Youth Ambassador Council, Ben found a space where young men support each other, challenge themselves, and use their experiences to make an impact in men’s mental health.
The Council is about giving young men the chance to lead with purpose, redefine masculinity, and build stronger communities together.
We’re so excited to support them as they turn their ideas into action and help shape a better future for young men.

12 young men, one powerful message: leadership, purpose, and values matter!
Our first National Youth Ambassador Council meeting for our newly appointed members was a highlight of connection and real talk.
The Top Blokes Youth Ambassador Council is about young men taking charge and shaping their world. We`re proud to see these young leaders embracing their true selves and redefining masculinity.
