My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

Suicide has been a far too frequent punctuation mark through my life. I'm starting to lose count... 2026 added another to the tally.

When I was young, one of my uncles took his own life. In high school, a fellow student's older brother ended his life. Early 2000s I came across a young man that had hung himself from a foot bridge above a road in my hometown. 2020 a friend in a gaming community took his own life. In the last few years, three of my friends have each lost a brother to suicide.

In 2023, we lost a member if the pinball community in Melbourne and then just before the end of the year Horsham lost one an absolute stalwart of the community, of the best ambos I've ever worked with.

There's been other accidental deaths that were possibly linked to mental health issues: a few years back a friend aspirated on vomit from being too drunk and a few years before that another died from a drug overdose...

The commonality among all of these? They were all men. In the same period, to the best of my knowledge, none of my female friends have ended their own lives.

Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men. Too many men are ‘toughing it out’, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. The Movember Foundation is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030, and I want to help them get there. Help me stop men dying too young.

I had the privilege of spending the last weekend in November at a retreat for men to explore and restore in the context of masculinities, many were sporting mustaches that reminded me of your epic expression and teamwork for the legwork, well done to you both and thank you

Hannah's a legend, will miss seeing her jogging about Horsham. I think next year's fund-raiser should be you pulling her around in a rickshaw. Something to work towards

The broken ankle has certainly slowed me down a touch this year. $925 is certainly a fine effort.

Hey Andrew! I thought I’d drop by to say a big hairy thanks for flying the flag for men’s health (again) this year. 8 years of support is just incredible
You’re smashing your fundraising all in the name of a bloody important cause – to help men live happier, healthier and longer lives. There’s still plenty of fun to be had this Hairy Season so keep it up legend.
United we will help prevent other men taking their lives. Thanks and Mo On!

There was a huge flurry of votes late in the semi-finals, with the deepest pockets significantly affecting the outcome. Sadly, the D'artagnan, whilst the leader in the straight votes, was knocked out be The Double Decka Burger due to superior campaigning by their supporters.

The other semi-final was almost a complete whitewash with Questions Must Be Asked fielding the vast majority of the votes, once again proving that evil will always triumph, because good is dumb.

Day 30: The finals result is here for all to see (and Hannah can't wait for it to go tomorrow).

I've managed my distance total of 60km over the month and $1741 is already an amazing result but I'm still a few dollars short of my fundraising target of $2000.

Thanks again for your all your support!
