My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Testicular cancer
Prostate cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

It is that time of year again!!

This is not something I am very open about, however, I have struggled with my mental health for the past 6 years, and still do so to this day. I am an outgoing, and happy guy, but what you see daily isn’t always the truth on how I am feeling. This is the same with a few men I know, it is not always fun and games.

There should be no shame in saying the above and looking for help, but as men we struggle to show weakness, and to look for help.

This charity and movement is very close to my heart. Any donations would be greatly appreciated to support myself and any other men who don’t speak out.

Twas the night before Movember, when all through the land,
Not a whisker was stirring, not one single strand.
The razors were readied by the sink with care,
In hopes that a smooth-to-be face would soon be there.
The Mo Bros and Sisters were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Mo glory ran through their heads.

Yes folks, the hairiest month of the year begins TOMORROW!!

Hopefully all the plans for your team’s campaigns are in place, and if not – there is still time to recruit, make plans and build hype. Last year the sports challenge made a serious impact, and we’re gonna do it all again this year.

BE THE DIFFERENCE IN MOVEMBER 2024!

Last year's match ended 39-38 to the visiting team, so you know it's going to be another cracking competition this year. Come along to see highly skilled, moustachioed men chucking a rugby ball about, all in the name of men's health.
Kick off is 14:00 at Richmond Athletic Ground, with the bar open before, during and after! We will then pile into the clubhouse for the England vs. New Zealand game at 17:30, and party the night away…
