Target: $4,000
raised $24,737 since 2008
My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

Just like for a lot of people out there, this year has been long and tough, and while there is lots of talk out there around mental health there is still a lot to be done. The same goes for men's health! I know there are lots of fundraisers and lots of charity groups that all do a great job but Movember has been around for a number of years and has made some amazing donations to Mental and Men's Health and that's why I have been a Mo Bro for 16 years. With all the generous donations we have raised over $22,000 in that 16 years so I would like to thank you all. Please give your self a pat on that back as that is awesome work. But we are not stopping there. Once again I will attempt to put some fuzz back above my top lip. Yeah it may be a bit lighter (not grey) and I can't do the big mutton chops I used to as I sleep with a CPAP machine (yes I do try to work on my own health) but there will be something there (might dye it this year if I get enough donations). I know things are tight and money is precious ;) so I don't expect you to donate big (will love you even more if you do though), just remember that even $5 or $10 dollars all adds up. I am going to set a higher target this year, our best year was $5000 so lets aim big and see if we can get to $4000 this year. Thanks in advance for your support. See you all in Movember.

Well a big week with us hitting the $1000 raised mark for this year thanks to a very generous donation. That also takes us to $23,780 raised over the years of being a Mo Bro.
I know the years seem to get quicker as we get older but this one just seems to have been a blur and talking to a lot of people a tough one mentally. I know it has been a tough one for me and I am looking forward to a break albeit a short one over Christmas, it will be needed with a big start to the new year planned (watch this space

Well what a battle it has been to get some posts up and chase donations! We still have time but might struggle to get to our target this year. It has just been so busy and each time I think about posting something else happens and I don't get to do one. Any way would be great if we can get to the $2000 mark so if you can please donate. I really do appreciate the support

Well that came around bloody quick! So this year it’s all about mental health! Like a lot of people it’s been a tough year all round and I think it is going to continue on for awhile yet. Please make sure you look after yourself and ask for help!

Just over half way through Movember 2020 so time to check in on all of you to see how you’re going? It’s been a tough one for a lot of you. Have spoken to a few people that have had a few health issues so please make sure you get a check up if you feel unwell! Have heard a few stories of people struggling mentally! If that’s you reach out for help. Let’s try to end the year on a positive note...

Well half halfway through and I must admit I have been a bit slack this year so time for an update and to give you all a gentle reminder to donate. This year has been a tough one for a lot of friends and friends of friends. We all need to remember to reach out and make contact with your mates to make sure they R OK! If you get a chance this weekend give someone a call or at least send them a message to see how their going! And please if you can afford a few dollars please donate to my cause...

284 Week(s) Ago

Well that month went quick! Only a few days left though you do have until the 1st week if December to donate so please help me get to the $15,000 mark in funds raised since becoming a Mo Bro. You don’t need to donate much! Every $5, $10, $20 helps to fund research for these great causes so please donate what you can.

Well here we go again. This year has been a battle with having to close Transworld, some tough months with Braid & Co and my ongoing battle with my weight that has caused a few health issues of my own. Having said that there are a lot of other people out there doing it a lot tougher than I am. My thoughts go out to you all and remember we are not just here to help by raising funds, we are also here to help and talk to if you are doing it tough and need help. For everyone else out there especially all those that share posts during the year it is time to put you money where your mouth is and donate!!!

Well that month flew buy!!! We are currently sitting at $835.00 so still some way to go till we reach the $2000 target but don't worry you have 10 days still to donate so there is still time. It has been a busy month with trips to Melbourne, Mackay and Cairns. Before we know it Christmas will be here. For some of us that is a time to relax and spend some time with the family. I might even take a couple of days off. For others they will continue to battle illness, or fight their demons or be morning the loss of a loved one. Our thoughts go out to you all and remember if you get the chance ask your friends "are you ok?"

Well just past the 1st week of Movember 2017, we started well but have slowed down. Please donate to this great cause. I am sure you have all know some one that has been effected by suicide, prostrate cancer or depression. My target is still $2000 and if everyone donates we should pass that with ease.
dig deep everyone, it is a great cause...
