My Story
In the past few years I’ve done Movember for my father who I lost to Cancer aged 47.
Sadly I have the toughest reason to “grow the mo” having lost my son to Suicide on the 11 June 2022 aged 21. I would not wish this on anyone and we need to do more to stop men dying!

Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men. Too many men are ‘toughing it out’, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. Help me stop men dying too young.

Well team we are now into week 2 and slowly making progress on our fund raising at the "Mo's" are looking amazing! Remember we all support a lot if good causes for others so don't be shy asking others to support you in this. The serious side is even more important when did you last see your doctor??? I challenge you all to make an appointment before the end of Movember. I know Dean has and also caught up with mine a couple of months ago. I would love to see some more Yammer action - dont be shy, we can all lead the way on this!!
