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

This year I’ve gone for the Triple Mo Growmitment. The Mo, the Mo-hawk and the Mo-ullet. Because apparently one just wasn’t ridiculous enough!
There’s plenty of fun behind the photo, but the reason for doing it is much more important: men’s health, both physical and mental.
If you’d like to support my Movember fundraising, any donation, big or small, would be genuinely appreciated.
But I have an even bigger ask.
If you haven’t been to the doctor for a while, or you’re overdue for your annual health check, please make that appointment.
And just as importantly, check in with your mates. Have the conversation. Don’t suffer in silence, and don’t let your mates go silent either.
Sometimes simply asking “Are you OK?” and taking the time to really listen can mean more than we realise.
Honestly, looking after yourself and looking out for each other is worth more to me than any donation. That is priceless.
If you would still like to support my Movember journey, you can donate here:

Thank you so much for all the support

For me, Movember is personal.
My dad passed away from a brain aneurysm. He was active and always wore a mo. I’ll never know whether regular health checks could have helped him, but it’s one of the reasons I believe men need to look after their health and not wait until something is wrong.
At work we’ve also heard stories of colleagues who had a health check, found out they had prostate cancer and were lucky enough to catch it early.
I always compare it to what we do at work with our multifunction devices. We do preventative maintenance to stop them from breaking down. Why wouldn't we do the same for ourselves? Get the regular check-ups, listen to your doctor and look after your health.
If we can encourage one person to get checked, or help prevent someone from becoming seriously ill, then we’ve done something good.
Keep the Momentum going. Get checked. Look after yourself. Look after your mates.

I had blood test done - all at acceptable levels including glucose which was a little outside. When you are over 50 - it is advised to test annually otherwise as advised by doctor due your family history! Be on your safe side and keep testing and be proactive. Do something good by donating blood too!!
