My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

This year's Movember is particularly meaningful to me, as it will be my last opportunity to take part alongside my PHRI teammates before my contract comes to an end at the end of the year.

It's been a privilege to be part of this team, and I wanted to make the most of one last opportunity to come together for a cause that I genuinely care about.

Mental health awareness is something that has a very personal connection for me. As someone with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD Level 2), I know that mental health can be a particularly challenging part of life for people on the autism spectrum. Research has consistently shown that autistic people experience higher rates of mental health difficulties and premature mortality, with some particularly confronting research finding that we're almost three times more likely to die by suicide than the general population.

That makes this cause especially important to me.

On a more personal note, I'm also approaching a period of considerable uncertainty. With my employment contract ending, I'm facing the prospect of unemployment and the anxiety that comes with not knowing what lies ahead. I expect there may be some difficult times ahead, and mental health awareness, support and looking out for one another have never felt more important.

Movember is about more than growing a moustache. It's about starting conversations, challenging the stigma around mental health, and reminding people that they aren't alone, even when things get difficult.

I want to do my part to help keep those conversations going, raise awareness and support the work being done to improve men's mental health and suicide prevention.

So, one last Movember with my PHRI teammates, for a cause that matters to me now more than ever.

This year I participated in Movember again. My participation isn't always very obvious, as it takes most of the month for anything to show on my face, but I don't think I did too bad this year.
I know Decemeber has now started, but its not to late to make a contribution towards my Movember efforts. The Movember foundation is the leading charity for men's health issues, particularly focusing on prostate and testicular cancers, and mental health issues.

Here's the first photo of this year's Movember effort - just like every other year, the month is basically over by the time I have anything to show.
