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

Over the last nine Movember campaigns, I’ve passionately advocated for men’s health and the importance of early cancer detection. Drawing from my own life’s experiences, I’ve spread the Movember message and hoped in some way it helped others battling this terrible disease.

But when it came to mental health, I hesitated. Unlike cancer, it felt intangible; I didn’t understand it. That changed this year. One of my best mates was diagnosed with a mental health issue. He was the last person I ever thought would face this battle. Seeing him struggle, not knowing why he feels the way he does, has been distressing not only for him but for his family and friends too.

Yet, in the face of this invisible illness, he has been leaning on those who care about him, including me. We’ve had deep conversations, just the two of us, and I’ve been humbled to listen and be there for him.

As Movember advocates, we can’t fix someone else’s problems, but we can be there. We’re not counsellors but being willing to listen is incredibly powerful.

If someone you care about seems to be struggling - with a visible disease or otherwise - they might not speak up, even if they want to. Sometimes, the first step is simply reaching out to check in and lend an ear.

To give men and boys the best chance of a happier, healthier, and longer life, the Movember Foundation is working to determine how to improve the social networks of men and implement the findings. We are helping to develop better strategies so that men have the support they need to address their mental health problems, rather than trying to go it alone. (Movember Investment Strategy).

Once again, I humbly ask for your support in backing my campaign, and I’m deeply grateful for all you’ve given before.
