Howdens X Movember
Howdens have joined forces with Movember to change the face of men’s health.
Sign up to Movember, find and join your depot’s team, and raise funds and awareness for men’s health.
Why support Movember?
Around the world, men are dying young. In fact, men in our industry are significantly more likely to die early.
Movember’s mission is to change the face of men’s health. Mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer – together, we’re taking them all on. It’s why Movember and Howdens are partnering.
Joining a team is a powerful way to make an impact. You’ll not only raise much-needed funds for game-changing men’s health programmes – you’ll also build a community, share in a common goal, and have heaps of fun along the way. Come together to amplify your efforts while starting important conversations about men’s health. Help bring us closer to a world where men live happier, healthier, longer lives.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to grow a moustache to take part?
Men’s health affects everyone. So, if you can’t (or don’t want to) grow a Mo, don’t fret, there are plenty of other ways to get face-deep into the movement:
- Move for mental health: Move 60km over the month for the 60 men we lose to suicide each hour.
- Mo Your Own Way: Get creative and devise your own challenge.
- Host a Mo-ment: Create a Movember event to help raise funds and awareness for the cause.
- Captain or co-captain a Howdens team, or join a Movember planning committee.
How can women get involved?
While growing a Mo is left to the guys, those who don't grow moustaches but still want to support men’s health do a lot of important work for Movember. Mo Sisters and those who love Mo's can raise funds and awareness by signing up and pledging to Move, Host or Mo Your Own Way.

Where does the money go?
Since 2003, we've built a men's health movement, funding over 1,320 projects around the world. We call it challenging the status quo – shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.
Funds raised during Movember go towards supporting innovative world-class men’s health projects in our key focus areas – mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer. These projects are funded either directly by Movember or through our men’s health partners. Learn more about our impact.
