My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention
Testicular cancer

It's time to regrow the mo! I've gone with a deviation from the usual ‘Chopper’, as seen above. Someone suggested I should do something Dali-esque this time, complete with twiddly ends, we're not quite there yet, but we’ll see how it turns out!

As you probably know, mental health is a real big deal for me, having suffered with suicidal depression, and still living with depression and anxiety. For me it's something I've learnt to live with each day, but I don't think it will ever truly leave me. I take pills for it, and that helps, as do exercise and eating well, but nothing beats friendship, company and support, and I’m lucky enough to have that in spades.

But too many men are ‘toughing it out’ on their own, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. Globally, on average, 1 man dies by suicide every minute of every day, and 7 out of 10 suicides are men. And that same male attitude of not seeking help shows in statistics for prostate and testicular cancer too.

In 2012 you helped me raise $535 for men's health, and in 2018 you humbled me with an incredible $1,040. Since then I’ve lost another dear friend to suicide, and with my own very sudden and sharp decline in physical health, keeping on top of my own mental health has been hugely important in just helping me cope with daily life.

Times are tough I know, and we’ve all had to tighten our belts, but I’ll be honoured if you’d join me in raising funds to support men’s health this Movember.

Thanks, much aroha, Bren xxx

Looking forward to seeing your creation and glad you’re supporting such an important cause. Mental health support is very close to my heart having recently lost someone to suicide- let’s all do more to help everyone get the support they need. Xx
