Jonny Hurn

Jonny was born here but traded Wellingtons wind for Sydney's sand. Thankfully he got sick of walking on the beach, swapped his boardies for body armour, and can now be found walking the beat here in Auckland as a New Zealand Police Officer.

Between the funny stories, thermonuclear pies and flashing lights, like all first responders Jonny is exposed to the darkest moments in many peoples lives. These experiences take a toll and galvanised his passion for change. Jonny grows a Mo to see better mental health outcomes for Men, having seen the impact of this crisis both at home and at work. He is especially passionate about targeted strategies for his mates in emergency services, who carry a heavy load for all of us.

After work it's time at home with family before escaping civilization to hit the road on two wheels. You might just see him out there, taking the long way around.

Tyson Hullena

Tyson is a survivor of testicular cancer and an advocate for mental health. Tyson was sporting a moustache when first diagnosed with testicular cancer during November in 2013. Seldom clean-shaven, every Movember is a fresh(faced) reminder of the journey to overcome that diagnosis. He is a keen public speaker and is keen to have open conversations about mental health to stop men dying too young.

Hailing from the mighty Wairarapa, Tyson enjoys spending time near the ocean swimming, diving and surfing. You may also find him out running, in the gym or spending time with friends and whānau. Tyson’s mo-style is the regent, inspired by New Zealand’s own Billy T James.

Tori Wheelans

Tori has been a Mo Sista with Movember since 2018 after loosing her Dad to suicide. She has come to Movember with the intent to bring awareness to Men’s Health, start conversations between all the special men in her life and change the stigma around the stereotypes of toxic masculinity.

Tori is a Primary School Teacher in Invercargill and in her spare time you’ll either find her in the kitchen whipping up some baking or outdoors running or walking with friends and family.

Dan Sharples

Having gone through his own testicular cancer diagnosis, Dan knows the importance of Movember to someone going through a men’s health issue. This year will be his third campaign with Movember and he can’t wait to get out and spread the men’s health message.

Outside of work you won’t find him too far from a cricket ground, on the golf course or enjoying the sun at the beach.
