Richard McDonald spent 22 years in the police, mainly working as a legal consultant in the sex crimes squad. He’s now a lawyer in private practice in Sydney.

In May this year, the Federal Health Department called a meeting of key men's health organisations asking them to prepare a pre-budget submission for Treasury, making the case for increased men's health funding.
Our major men's groups were all on board – including Men's Sheds, Movember, Dads in Distress, Australian Men's Health Forum. They beavered for months producing their carefully analysed funding strategies.
