Prostate Cancer
"Together with the brightest minds in research, we aim to achieve significant breakthroughs in the hope of beating prostate cancer. Our disruptive funding approach identifies revolutionary ways to accelerate health outcomes by creating strong, global collaborative teams." Dr. Colleen Nelson, Global Scientific Chair.
Men's Health
"One Mo can help change the face of men’s health through the powerful conversations created globally during Movember. Men have the chance to confidently discuss men’s health with people around them, resulting in men taking action early, helping change and save lives." Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs
Mental health and suicide prevention
“The number of men taking their own lives around the world is one of the biggest challenges of our time. Movember is working to ensure all men and boys look after their mental health and are comfortable to seek help when they’re struggling.”
Brendan Maher, Global Director, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.
Testicular Cancer
“Despite being the 2nd most common cancer in young men, testicular cancer is often a forgotten cancer due to early detection and treatment. Our projects look at underinvested areas such as improving access to healthcare services and treatment options for relapse” Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs.

About the project

Men need high quality health information about prostate cancer, its treatment and care so that they can make informed decisions and understand their condition.
 

We produce printed, downloadable and web-based resources such as videos that provide information for men who have concerns about their prostate, men who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer or other prostate disease, and men at risk. All of our information holds the Department of Health Information Quality Mark and is updated every two years. We send our information directly to men that contact us, or via their health professionals.

The broad aims of the program were to ensure:
  • Men are better informed about prostate cancer and their treatment, and can make the choices about testing, treatment and care that are right for them
  • Men, their families and health professionals are satisfied that the information that they received met their needs
  • Men will have improved physical and mental wellbeing because of the wide range of information we are able to provide
  • The Prostate Cancer Charity (now Prostate Cancer UK) will continue to be a trusted source of information
