Men’s Health has hired Alastair Campbell as a mental health columnist, leading a ‘Talking Heads’ interview franchise with globally renowned personalities. Alastair is a writer and communicator best known for his role as former British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s spokesman, press secretary and director of communications and strategy.

Alastair will feature across Men’s Health’s magazine, website and YouTube channel, using his own experience of depression and breakdown to connect with his interviewees and raise awareness of mental health amongst men.

Talking Heads will be an ongoing series drawing attention to the people and the issues at the heart of the vital debate around mental health and the interviews will also shine more light on the inextricable link between physical and mental health.

The interview series launches in the March 2022 issue of Men’s Health UK – out 9 February.
