Why Movember?
Movember is a fantastic movement that raises money for a multitude of amazing causes such as men's mental health, suicide prevention, testicular cancer and prostate cancer.
These are all issues that are close to our hearts, and we frequently meet people who have battled with these conditions. It is inspiring to hear their stories, but there are many stories we do not get to hear.
1 in 8 men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime.
12 men commit suicide every day.
As much as 75% of suicides are men.
This is why we have chosen to support Movember this year. Your donations can make a difference.
From the charity:
Our fathers, partners, brothers and friends are facing a health crisis, yet it’s rarely talked about. Men are dying too young. We can’t afford to stay silent. We are the leading charity changing the face of men’s health. We know what works for men – and what doesn’t. Prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention – we’re taking them all on. Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, and shaking up men’s health research.
