Movember

Movember is the global month-long movement that runs from 1-30 November 2026, raising awareness and funds for men’s health, including prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men’s mental health and suicide prevention.

When is Movember?

Movember is held in November (1-30). It is one of the many UK awareness days that bring people together around a shared cause — see the full calendar.

Why Movember matters

Men often face poorer health outcomes and are less likely to seek help early, so Movember drives vital research, services and open conversations that encourage men to look after their health and reach out when they are struggling. Explore community support volunteering.

How to get involved in Movember

There are three simple ways to make Movember count:

• Volunteer — help a local men’s health charity or community group run check-in events and peer-support sessions through November. Browse opportunities.
• Fundraise — set yourself a sponsored challenge such as a run, walk or growing a moustache to raise money for men’s health research and services.
• Raise awareness — share men’s health information and encourage the men in your life to talk openly and get checked.
