Movember Motivators

Last November Neil Delaney and Dave Jarvis from the Sales team motivated all those at Noble with the ability to grow a mo (moustache) to fund raise for the Movember Foundation, promoting awareness of prostate and testicular cancer.

The stategy is simple, get sponsored to grow a mo for one month.

Amount raised: £ 874.60

The state of men’s health is in crisis. Men experience worse longer-term health than women and die on average six years earlier. Prostate cancer rates will double in the next 15 years. Testicular cancer rates have already doubled in the last 50. Three quarters of suicides are men. Poor mental health leads to half a million men taking their own life every year. That’s one every minute.

The Movember Foundation is uniquely placed to address the crisis at a global level. They’re funding ground-breaking programmes all over the world, engaging with men where they are, to understand what works best, to help make change happen sooner.

Their aim is to reduce the number of men dying prematurely by 25% by 2030 with half as many men dying from postate and testicular cancer. Half as many men suffering serious side effects as a result of their treatment. A quarter fewer men dying from suicide.
