This study examined the BoroManCan campaign, which was implemented in Middlesbrough, northern England, to improve men\u2019s health and well-being. The key components included a website and podcast to share men\u2019s stories, Men\u2019s Health Champions training, and funding for grassroots interventions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Semi-structured interviews with 18 BoroManCan stakeholders (staff\/volunteers, partner organisations, and intervention deliverers) were conducted by academic researchers, while local men trained as peer researchers interviewed 23 community members (22 men and 1 woman). The transcripts were analysed thematically.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Five themes were developed from the data: the need for gender-specific, place-based approaches; mobilizing available resources; responding to the COVID-19 pandemic; early impact of BoroManCan; and suggested areas for improvement. The BoroManCan approach was perceived as successful in delivering and supporting activities tailored to the needs of local men. However, the campaign relied heavily on goodwill, raising questions about sustainability.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study adds to the evidence base around developing complex, place-based approaches to improving men\u2019s health in disadvantaged areas.
