Movember 2020
UCCSU is delighted to be supporting the Movember 2020 campaign.
Movember is a movement that seeks to promote awareness on three major men’s health issues – Mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer
Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.
The ultimate goal of Movember is to reduce the number of men dying prematurely by 25% by 2030.
UCCSU Movember
