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

November 2023 - I'm going to keep sharing my mental health journey but this will be my last dance with Movember and I really want to hit that $10k raised!

This year has been a minefield of stress with this being the first full year where my son has been diagnosed as autistic. With Movember approaching I've very much been reminded of how I've done a lot of ignoring how my own health because so many other things seem way more important.

So i'm doing this to remind myself and others out there, that it's easier to be a good husband and father if you make the time to look after yourself mentally and physically.

So this year i'm growing a mo, making those doctors appointments I've been putting off and I want to make an effort to move the 60kms this time outside of my regular incidental daily activity.

i hope you follow me on my journey and support my efforts to hit $10k raised for this worthwhile cause.

How I'm
getting involved
0 of 60 kilometres
walking
running
I'm moving 60km in adddtion to my incidental activity this Movember for the 60 men we lose each hour of every day.

Moustaches have been shaved, leaderboards have been closed, and eternal glory has been achieved.

It is my great honour to announce the Top 5 from this year’s Mo University Challenge.

Collectively, this community of 1,353 Mo’s from 291 teams across Australia raised an incredible $285,386. Just unbelievable.

This is where change is being made. You are the people creating a better future for men’s health. So from the tips of our moustaches to the bottom of our hearts, thank you to each and every one of you for the wonderful impact you’ve made.

Keep on changing the world,
Josh from Team Movember

Some serious movement in the rankings, and even more serious funds raised, with the Mo Uni Challenge cracking $200,000 for 2023!

These funds go directly to lifesaving programs, helping men live healthier, longer lives. Every one of you has made that possible - thank you.

The leaderboards don't close until the 12th of December, so put in that final push and share those Mo Spaces far and wide! Could there be a late shift in the top 5?

Time to bring it home,

Very happy with the progress with the mo and getting so close to hitting my goals! Already beyond my fund-raising goal with $965 and only 2 kms away from my movement goals. Let's do it!!!

As part of looking after my health I got my eyes checked. Look! New glasses

Also for those who read my blog. My podiatrist is a former professional call of duty player which was an interesting surprise

It's that time of year for my annual blog on me, being a parent and my health both mental and physical. I hope you take the time to read it and if you can donate to my Movember fundraising.

Wow oh wow. Halfway through and we are blown away by your support.

We've had 24-hour relays, 60km solos, moustache tattoos... and we're only getting started.

Uni Mo's of Australia, give yourselves a huge pat on the back and keep up the incredible work. A big couple of weeks of goodness on the way.

Inspired by you all,
Josh from Team Movember
