This November, I’m taking part in Movember to help raise awareness and funds for men’s health.
Movember supports important work across mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer. Too many men still die too young from health issues that could be prevented, managed or treated earlier. The charity funds research, services and programmes that encourage men to have open conversations, seek support and take their health seriously.

I’ll be growing a moustache throughout the month. It may not be the most fashionable decision I make this year, but it is a visible way to start conversations that matter. Many men find it difficult to talk about their health or ask for help, and Movember’s work helps make those conversations easier.

If you would like to support the cause, I would be very grateful for any donation to my Movember page. Every contribution helps fund work that can make a genuine difference.

Even if you are not able to donate, please check in with the men around you. A simple conversation can go a long way.
