Target: £60
raised £747 since 2022
My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Testicular cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

Every 60 seconds we lose a Bro worldwide to Mental Health concerns.
Then there's men's physical health.
These issues are often not spoken of, and the old school ideology that BOYS DON'T CRY still rings true. It's time to MO DOWN THE STIGMA.
Last Movember I walked the equivalent distance between my own unit in Edinburgh and our unit in Aberdeen. This Movember, the plan was to add 60 miles to that distance, making it the equivalent of walking from our unit in Glasgow to my unit in Edinburgh then on to Aberdeen, a total of 180 miles.
Back injury occurred, and so I'm taking it easy while aiming for the goal. All goals are therefore divisible by 60.
4 times around the top car park is a mile! If you see me on it during my lunch break, give me a shout, toot your horn!
Incredible support from the team at work, you all know who you are, and without wanting to embarrass anybody, THANK YOU!
And if you can donate, whether it's a penny in the collection tins or a couple of quid online, I'd be very grateful.
