My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

Movember is a cause close to my heart as I have experienced the loss of loved ones too early. My brother Alexander passed away at 45 after a long battle with mental health and some poor lifestyle choices. Again this Movember I'm getting on board and raising funds to tackle some of the biggest health issues faced by men: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and poor mental health.

Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men. This needs to change. The Movember Foundation is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030, and I want to help them get there. Help me stop men dying too young.

Great to see many of you back for 2025! Don't forget to spread the word, it's not too late to join to help stop men dying too young. I'm still doing 1 week at at time for topics and this week the focus is mental health and suicide prevention. I've worked with the Thrive@Thales team and have some artifacts you can distribute. Just let me know if you want them.

This is important so I've started with some of my own cash but now I'm looking for your help.

I'm MO-ving this Movember so I've already got a mo started.

For a $500 donation, I'll shave it off and start again.

For a $1000 donation, I'll shave my head as well!

If you've got another challenge you'd like to see me do, let me know and we might be able to negotiate a suitable donation..
