Movember Leaderboards are now officially closed (+ a day, bcuz exams)

Our University challenge had 500 members across 54 teams and moved a total of 10859.44 km.
This year's campaign is the second-highest campaign at UofG and we were justttt slightly shy of £40,000 (Movember HQ took a team away, Liam says "it's more of a feeling of longing" now, because we had reached £40k then got BOOTED down)... anyways.

While the month is over, the fight for mental health and destigmatizing masculinity is still as important as ever. Movember is an amazing cause as it manages to put a bit of humour into incredibly serious and important issues like testicular and prostate cancer, so we urge you to keep the lessons for the next 11 months, and then it'll already be time for Movember 2025!!

It's been a big privilege to help coordinate the charity this year and our committee would like to thank each and every MoBro/Sis for the diligent work. It was so much fun seeing creative challenges and people push themselves for a good cause--Movember is all about Havin' Fun Doin' Good, and we did exactly that.

This month we came together and it's a powerful reminder that through community and compassion, we not only combat physical health challenges but also build a foundation for mental well-being. Because problems shared are problems halved.

Thank you for a mo-numental month
Yours,
Cecilia and Liam

Thank you all! Your fundraising efforts are fantastic. Hope your Movember was good fun!

*pssst* did you hear Movember leaderboards don't close until december 9th?!

While the Moustaches might be shaved off, you've got 120 hours to post about the cause, any challenges you did, and procrastinate revision!! All for a great cause!
Tag us @movember_gu because we want to see how you Mo-ed this month.

Hi Everyone,
Now that the month of November has passed, on behalf of your ambassadors Patrick and Callum, we just wanted to say the biggest thank you to each and every individual who took part in this years campaign.
We have had some absolutely amazing events throughout the month including our 24-hour relay, Mo-darts, weekly sea plunges, and many more. Not to mention aswell all the amazing individual events and challenges hosted by societies and individuals within the University- you guys truly are amazing.
Notably, i would also like to shoutout Bilal, Rosie, John, Josh, Annabel, Jodie, Fionn, and Alex who we have been blessed to have on our committee this year. Each person has shown truly amazing passion during the months and their efforts have been nothing short of outstanding- they have been a core part of why we have enjoyed running this years campaign.
Additionally- thank you to the Rugby club for helping organise an amazing Mo-ball, all the union staff, Andy's man club, Polly Banks, the university shop, and yet again every single person who donated.
We still have fundraising until the 9th so keep pushing donations and lets try to bigger the total!

All the best and thanks again,

Patrick, Callum, and the 2024 Committee x

Wow guys, its the end of Movember and how amazing your efforts have been! Comepletely smashed our target - over 25k raised! Don't stop now though - leaderboards officially close 9th of December!

WEEK 4 BUT SURPRISE--IT'S NOT OVER YET!!

We have crushed this month as a university. The top uni in Scotland and the second-best Movember at Glasgow, thanks for being part of the mission to change men's health.

There is a final double donation day on December 3rd at 9 a.m. Here's the total cheat code to get on that leaderboard: donate in 20GBP increments and tell your folks to donate starting at 9 a.m. and get a matching 20 from L'oreal. You can do it as many times as you want.

Another cheat code for fundraising: Facebook is the place to be. Create a Facebook fundraiser from your MoSpace (more step-by-step on Instagram)! It's funny but it works!!

We'll post our final recap on December 9th when leaderboards close. @movember_gu of course for updates.

Congrats everyone!

1 week to go! And we're less than £2k away from NTU's biggest ever Movember! Keep going guys everyone's doing so well!!!

ONE WEEK LEFTTTT!!
Hey MoBros and MoSistahs, Liam and I are beyond impressed with the exceptional efforts from each individual so far. It's not long until the moustaches can be shaved and running shoes tucked away.

We're currently the leading University in Scotland, and everyone in this challenge has been involved in pioneering men's health.

This week, try a new lil' challenge: Invite your mates for a coffee in these cold temps (or a hot chocolate with Baileys; we don't judge) and put the teachings of Movember into practice. Check up with your mates as exams get more intense and the temperature drops. It's important to practice what we've been preaching and strengthen our community and friendships.

We're excited to see a strong finish to this Movember, and are loving the crazy challenges you've all come up with!

And finally, the teams that have been really showing us how it's done.

The top 10 university teams at this point in the month are:
1. Cardiff University Rugby Club
2. Durham University Cricket Club
3. Exeter University Hockey Club
4. University of Nottingham Men's Hockey Club
5. Liverpool University RFC
6. DURFC
7. Sheffield University Cricket Club 2024
