Movember
2026-11-01 - 2026-11-30
What is ‘Movember?’

Movember is an annual event that occurs every November. During this time, men grow moustaches to raise awareness of men’s health issues.
By encouraging men to grow moustaches, Movember aims to increase early detection, better knowledge and improved treatment of things such as prostate and testicular cancer, mental health issues and men’s suicide.
Since its inception, Movember has raised over £400 million thanks to almost 7 million “Mo Bros” participating—not bad considering there were only 30 participants the first year.

Facts!

1 in 4 men admit to never having checked themselves for testicular cancer
Almost half of all men regularly forget to check themselves for testicular cancer
47% of men with a mental health problem have never raised it in the workplace
Men account for ¾ of UK deaths by suicide
Globally, on average 1 man dies of suicide every minute of every day
Men are dying on average 4.5 years earlier than women thanks to largely preventable/treatable reasons such as prostate or testicular cancer, and mental health difficulties

Over the past decade, the highest suicide rates each year have been in working-age males. Employers must create a safe workplace to provide their staff with the best mental and physical health support possible. We have a large team of male mental health speakers who are willing to share their stories about mental health, suicidal thoughts, and physical illnesses such as cancer.
Featured Speaker – Clive Branson
The last few years have been an astonishing period for Clive Branson, who’s no stranger to the isolation mental and physical health can bring. Having been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2017 and Prostate Cancer a year later, Clive has battled more than most. And although the last five years have been rather eventful for Clive and his family, his philosophy now is simple – not to allow daily challenges to define him. Today, Clive’s mission is to actively demonstrate that we do have the ability to overcome adversity. Resilience, Hope and Positivity are crucial words in his vocabulary, and the next chapter of his life will be met with stoicism and a smile. Clive is the epitome of an ‘inspirational speaker.’

Inspiring International Mens Day Speakers
Why Celebrate International Men’s Day?
Coinciding with Movember, International Men’s Day (IMD) – 19th November –International Men’s Day provides a platform to highlight men’s achievements and contributions to society, while also addressing the challenges they face. This observance aims to promote positive male role models, foster discussions on men’s health and well-being, and encourage conversations about gender equality and inclusivity.
By recognising International Men’s Day, we can create awareness and promote dialogue on issues that affect men in various aspects of life. It allows us to acknowledge their strengths, embrace diversity, and work towards creating a more equitable and supportive environment for all. Let us come together to celebrate the positive impact of men and address the issues that matter most to them on this significant occasion.
With ‘Toxic Masculinity‘ said to be one of the main reasons why men are less likely to seek medical advice, International Men’s Day (IMD) aims to promote a different narrative. It seeks to empower men, encouraging them to prioritize their well-being and feel assured when seeking support. By doing so, IMD equips men with valuable tools to become positive role models for future generations, fostering a healthier and more supportive environment for all.
International Mens Day Facts!

In 2021, 4,704 men in England, Wales and Scotland took their own lives, roughly 13 a day
Men make up ¾ of all deaths by suicide
Men are twice as likely to be victims of violent crime
95% of UK prisoners are male

Find an International Mens Day Speakers – Our International Men’s Day Speakers are here to offer men guidance and support, by providing an open space to discuss sensitive subjects, such as mental health and wellbeing, male-cancers/physical health, relationships and fatherhood, and gender and equality. The day is also in celebration of inspirational male role models, many of whom have shown true resilience and overcome great adversities to get to where they are today. Plus, it’s also an opportunity to appreciate male role models in business, and the many men who have made fantastic achievements in history and modern-day society.
It’s probably unfair to hero just one of our Inspiring International Mens Day Speakers, however, Roman has probably created the greatest waves of late within the media to highlight the issues:
Featured Speaker – Roman Kemp | International Mens Day Speakers
Whilst best known for being a radio DJ and TV presenter, Roman Kemp’s work on male mental health, depression, anxiety and suicide is fast eclipsing his media career. In 2020, his friend and colleague Joe Lyons took his own life after silently battling with mental health difficulties. Shocked by this, Roman has made it his mission to ensure everyone – particularly men – is able to speak up about their problems and to seek help before it’s too late. He brought this to the mainstream through his BBC3 documentary Our Silent Emergency.
Since this sad time, Roman has spoken at universities, and companies about male mental health and suicide, and has teamed up with the mental health charity MIND to promote the importance of speaking out.
