Target: £500
raised £6,504 since 2021
My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Testicular cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

It’s officially that time of the year again. And this time I’m hoping to reproduce the success of my 2021 campaign…

This year to try raise some coin I (along with some undecided others) are going to channel our inner Goggins/Wim Hoff and go for a swim in the North Sea everyday. By the end of the month literally no one will know us, son.

Now time to set some fundraising targets:
If I raise £250 I will rock my tache until Movember 2024.
If I raise £500 and complete my fundraising target I will get the Movember Moustache tattooed onto my buttocks.

There are also some Mo Events that will be going on in St Andrews throughout the post which I will be sharing on my Facebook and Instagram so please check them out!

Stay hard ladies and gentlemen,

ONE MORE DAY TO MO

As Movember draws to a close, we hope that those of you who are growing are beginning to feel at one with the Mo.

Will be a sad day for those that will be losing their furry face furniture soon but remember, you still have until 11th December until the leader boards close... so maybe you can extend the Mo growth just a bit longer.

Comedian Nick Helm has perfectly shown the Movember journey - go give it some love!

Hi John

Thank you for signing up for Movember, it’s great to have you back on board! Last year you were one of our Platinum Club legends and we can’t thank you enough for your amazing support.

Your fundraising means we were able to invest £5.7M in Scaling What Works; a programme that aims to supercharge initiatives that improve mental health and wellbeing for young boys and men, across community or workplace settings. You can find out more about the UK projects on our website.

If there is anything we can do to help make this Movember a success, please get in touch. I hope you have a great month!

Mo best
