According to the Office for National Statistics, prostate cancer was the second most common cancer diagnosed in 2007, the top one being breast cancer. Looking at the NOS graph there appears to be less than 10,000 difference in the numbers of breast and prostate cancer diagnosis in 2007. Breast cancer is very much in the public consciousness with high profile campaigns by charities and health organisations, such as October being global Breast Cancer Awareness month but is enough being done for cancers that effect men?

The organisers of Movember say no! Movember previously known as November, is a month long campaign which aims to highlight men’s health issues and raise money for the Prostate Cancer Charity. They aim to change the face of Men’s Health one moustache at a time.

To get involved you start Movember (November 1st) clean shaven (though I’m sure you can join in later on) and then you have the rest of the month to grow and groom your moustache. Ladies, you can join in too by registering your support for your moustache growing partner. Once you sign up to Movember you will be further known as a Mo Bro and Mo Sista until the end of the campaign at the end of Movember.

While you grow and looking after your Mo, each Bro will become a walking billboard for men’s health and through encouraging your family, friends and workmates to sponsor your efforts, raise essential funds for Movember’s men’s health partner – The Prostate Cancer Charity.

To date, Movember has raised over £30 million globally for the fight against prostate cancer and depression in men. As a direct result, male awareness of health issues has improved with Movember helping to spread health messages directly to millions of Mo Bros & Sistas around the world.
