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

This Movember, I’m proud to support the leading charity focused on men’s health—and I’m asking for your help in making a difference. Movember is committed to tackling some of the biggest health issues affecting men today: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention. Together, we can work to stop men from dying too young and bring awareness to the importance of taking care of men’s health.

This cause is deeply personal for me. A few years ago, I lost a very close friend to cancer, and the impact of his loss was devastating for everyone who knew and loved him. As a nurse, it was especially painful because I felt so helpless, unable to make a difference in his battle. His passing has stayed with me and strengthened my commitment to promoting health awareness and preventive care.

Every man deserves the chance to lead a healthy life, and that begins with taking proactive steps toward health and well-being. To all the men out there—please, make time for regular check-ups, seek support if you’re struggling with mental health, and don’t ignore symptoms or delay care.

With your support, we can fund research, improve early detection and treatment, and provide critical resources to those in need. Let’s work together to create a world where no one has to face the heartbreak of losing someone too soon.

Thank you for joining me in this fight for men’s health. Any donation, large or small, can make a difference. Julia x

This morning, I braved 90 extra minutes in a freezing 4-5°C air hall, and while my nose turned red and my hands froze, I didn’t die! It was way more fun than I imagined
