For the last several years Chaps & Co has joined in the Movember hype. Raising awareness and Inviting our people to engage with the charitable events throughout November.
Movember is the leading charity changing the face of men’s health on a global scale, focusing on mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer
The charity raises funds to deliver innovative, breakthrough research and support programmes that enable men to live happier, healthier and longer lives. Committed to disrupting the status quo, millions have joined the movement, helping fund over 1,250 projects around the world.
In addition to tackling key health issues faced by men, Movember is working to encourage men to stay healthy in all areas of their life, with a focus on men staying socially connected and becoming more open to discussing their health and significant moments in their lives. The charity’s vision is to have an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health
Testicular cancer affects a younger demographic than many other cancers. Thankfully, it is more easily detectable and treatable than other forms of the disease. For these reasons, the awareness raised each year throughout April (the testicular cancer awareness month) and Movember is crucial to the good health of men.
#KnowThyNuts
Since April this year, the Movember charity has been promoting #KnowThyNuts. Hoping to remind men that knowing their nuts and checking them regularly can become a life saving routine. A staggering 62% of men between the age of 18-34 (most-at-risk), did not know how to perform the checks.
Sam Gledhill, Movember’s Global Director of Testicular Cancer said, "This year, Testicular Cancer Awareness Month is more important than ever. Disruptions due to COVID-19 could mean that some men may have delayed those potentially life-saving conversations with their doctor.
“The good news is that it's as simple as adding self-checks to your regular routine, and the shower is a great place to start. Around once a month, just carefully and gently roll one nut at a time between your thumb and fingers.”
Our Contribution
With well over a month clear until Movember gets under way, we thought we’d take this opportunity to ramp up some support, tow the line, and get the pot of awareness bubbling.
As usual, we’ll have our Movember Walls of Fame displaying the best of our Chaps taches. We’ll also be offering to remove your efforts come December, free of charge, if you haven’t got too attached.
This year we’re going bigger and better. Firstly, we’ll be active in 3 different countries. The usual photo walls and giveaways will, as always, play a major part of the month.
Additionally, we’ll be adding a dedicated area to our website where you can keep up to date with all the happenings. Here, we’ll be promoting the Spot the Signs campaign and opening channels of conversation to help raise further awareness for the cause.
A Team Effort
The team at Chaps & Co are all fully prepped on the happenings and always happy to talk. The anticipation for the month is already reaching fever pitch (hence the post in September). There is nothing better than supporting a great cause, whilst having plenty of fun along the way.
Chaps & Co founding father, Jordan Davis had this to say –
“It’s a charity that lies close to my heart. As a man in the ‘at risk’ age range, I often consider the impact that something like this could have on myself, friends and family. With just the simplest of routines, men across the globe could avoid needless pain and suffering, and for all of us at Chaps, we believe that’s worth shouting about”
We’ll be updating the website soon, so keep your eye out on our social channels for updates and check back in to see what we have I store.
If you need to see us before Movember, you can pick a location here. To have a look through last years efforts, you can read our Movember Most Memorable Moments here.
