Phil’s Movember

Hi everyone,

I’m growing a moustache this Movember to raise awareness for men’s health specifically suicide prevention.

Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money in aid of Are you bogged mate? and every donation will help. Are you bogged mate? aims to boost awareness and start a conversation with the broader community about the rising issue of depression and suicide rates among men in rural areas. They are confronting the challenges that country men face on a daily basis, talking about mental health, and lighting the path to support.

I came across Are you bogged mate? at an event in Canberra on the 19th November - a single empty men’s shoe was placed on the lawn in front of Parliament House for every male suicide in Australia per year. The lawn was full of shoes, 2500 to be precise. This is 6 suicides per day in Australia - 6 too many.

Thank you for your contribution to this cause. Together we can make a difference.

Cheers,

Phil
