November is Men’s Mental Health Month – and it’s also MO-vember, the time that men are encouraged to grow facial hair for charity…
During Movember, men sign up to grow a moustache for 30 days, getting friends, family and colleagues to donate to their effort.
The Charity has had a massive impact on men’s health…here’s a taster from https://uk.movember.com/
‘Mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer – we’re taking them all on. Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.
‘We exist to help men live happier, healthier, longer lives – this is what drives every single one of our 1,250 men’s health projects. In everything we do, we strive to be transparent and accountable. We report thoroughly on each project so that our Mo Bros and Mo Sisters can see how their support is changing the lives of men around the world.’
Movember is something that is whole-heartedly embraced by the rugby community…
