Start conversations about men’s health this Movember

November 05, 2025

AS WE STEP into November, a global health movement known as Movember kicks into gear.

Start conversations about men’s health this Movember

MOVEMBER shines a light on men's health issues.

This isn't just about growing facial hair, but a powerful and personal call to action, turning the humble moustache into a crucial conversation starter for men's health.

The mission behind Movember is important for our fathers, brothers, partners and sons.

Its about saving lives, fostering open dialogue, and tackling some of the most serious and often-ignored health challenges facing South African men.

Think of your Movember commitment as your personal public health challenge.

The Movember mission

Movember began in Australia in 2003 with a simple idea: use a visible, lighthearted symbol (your moustache) to spark serious discussions about men's health.
