This November we're embarking on the #BoldynMovemberChallenge.

The Movember movement started in 2003 and since then has funded over 1,320 men’s health projects worldwide. It started with a handful of men and now involves 6 million people a year. The challenge aims to raise not just money, but awareness too.

So this Movember we'll be growing some mighty moustaches (MOs) for the Movember Foundation. Growing a Mo is a symbol for better men's health. It also grabs attention and starts important conversations. It shows the world you stand for healthier men and a healthier world.

Leading the charge will be Group CEO Igor Leprince and other members of the Boldyn Networks Group Executive team who will be growing MOs for Movember. We're looking forward to seeing some fabulous MOs!

The reason for doing this is simple. Men’s health is in crisis. Men are dying on average 4.5 years earlier than women, and for largely preventable reasons. A growing number of men – around 10.8M globally – are facing life with a prostate cancer diagnosis. Globally, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men. And across the world, one man dies by suicide every minute of every day, with males accounting for 69% of all suicides.

Participants in Movember are more likely to seek help for physical concerns and to talk to someone about their mental health. So let’s talk about men’s health!
