Movember are the only charity tackling men's health on a global scale, year round. Using their international platform, they raise awareness around some of the biggest health issues that men can face: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention.

Since their formation in 2003, Movember has grown a lot, inspiring support from over 5 million Mo Bros and Mo Sistas year in, year out. Thanks to these incredible people, Movember have been able to fund more than 1,200 projects saving and improving lives of men all around the world.

Their Values

Similar to uea(su), Movember have their own set of principals that they apply to everything they do in the name of men's health.

Considering raising money this Movember? We'd love to see you be an example of these same values!

In partnership with UEA, we will be putting on a full array of events over the course of Movember 2023 - keep an eye on our Instagram and Facebook to keep updated, as well as those of any club or society you're in!

Meet james and tom

At UEA the Sportspark and sports teams get behind Movember and push the charity to raise both awareness and funds. Evie, your Activities and Opportunities Officer, is working with James and Tom to support their work with Movember and provide as many activities as they can to really get you "mo-ving".

As part of their initiative, this triumphant trio are trying to drive the conversation and raise awareness of men’s mental health at UEA. They will be working to engage and support groups who feel that they might not be able to engage with Movember, whether due to gender or not being able to grow a tache! However, everybody has a man in their life; father, partner, sibling, friend, colleague etc – so have the conversation for them.

If you have any suggestions for events that you would like to see from us, or any questions about how to get involved, let us know!
