Fundraising for cause areas including:

Prostate cancer
Testicular cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

I was honoured to have completed the iconic TCS NY City Marathon as part of the Movember Team in 2018 and 2019. Voted the Highest Individual Fund Raiser in Australia in 2015,2016,2017,2018,2019,2020,2021,2022, 2023 & 2024. 2nd(2012) & 4th(2013). Won the Best Mo Space in 2012 & 2015. The unrelenting support of the communities of Mackay & Whitsundays is here for all to see and trusting they will get behind my campaign again in 2025. I have been a passionate Mo Bro since 2008 and this is my 18th consecutive campaign. Have been the Captain and Chief Motivator of an incredible group of Mo Bros and Mo Sistas in the MOV~ing Mackay Cricket Club since 2011. I thoroughly enjoyed my two TCS NYC Marathon experiences for Movember in 2018 and 2019 and am very proud that in 2019 with more Aussies in the Team we beat our efforts of yesteryears and created a new benchmark by raising the most monies by any Movember Marathon Team till date.

My 2025 MO Stache is inspired by MOVEMBER and what it stands for and the fight against the 2 main cancers in men namely Prostate Cancer and Testicular Cancer with the MO symbolising crab claws (symbol of Cancer in the zodiac) with a heart in the middle to symbolise Mental illness and Suicide Prevention .

On November 19, International Men’s Day celebrates worldwide the positive value men bring to the world, their families and communities. We highlight positive role models and raise awareness of men’s well-being. Our theme for 2024 is “ZERO MALE SUICIDE”. Together we can stop male suicide.

Helping Men and Boys
Zero Male Suicide

International Men’s Day encourages men to teach the boys in their lives the values, character and responsibilities of being a man. Mahatma Gandhi said, “We must become the change we seek.” It is only when we all, both men and women, lead by example that we will create a fair and safe society that allows everyone the opportunity to prosper.

Happy International Men’s Day from @bandisanjeev,to all men with a heart of gold, as this day belongs to you.

A brave man takes a stand, and the spines of others are constantly strengthened as COURAGE is contagious. You offer your happiness and life for the welfare of your family and loved ones.

Let us celebrate Men’s honour and dignity; they deserve appreciation and value

On the 19th day of Movember 2024 it is good to remind ourselves of the following:

GET SUPPORT

GIVE SUPPORT

GO BEYOND BANTER
Being a man of more words is not about dialing up the banter. It is about carving out space for meaningful chats about the bigger stuff in life. From talking about the kids, the bills, a new job or a setback – the right conversation can make all the difference to a mate who might be struggling.

If we all dig a little deeper, we can help prevent more men from reaching a crisis point.

Suicidal behaviours are defined as thinking about or planning taking one’s own life (suicidal ideation) or attempting suicide.

Understanding the prevalence of suicidal behaviours in Australia is important as this may help to reduce stigma, increase help-seeking behaviour and improve suicide prevention activities.

Many people experience thoughts of suicide:

In 2023, there were 3,214 deaths by suicide. The age-standardised suicide rate was 11.8 per 100,000.

Three-quarters of people who died by suicide were male.

Men had a higher age-standardised suicide rate (18.0 per 100,000) than women (5.8 per 100,000).

Males aged 55-59 years had the highest age-specific suicide rate. Males aged 45-49 years accounted for the largest proportion of deaths due to suicide (10%).

Females aged 50-54 years had the highest age-specific suicide rate (10.0 deaths per 100,000). They accounted for the largest proportion of female suicide deaths (11%).

HELP US ADDRESS THIS CHALLENGE IN 2024. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

People who experience suicidal ideation and make suicide plans are at increased risk of suicide attempts and those who experience all forms of suicidal thoughts and behaviours are at greater risk of dying by suicide
