I’ve always been a big advocate of Movember, almost losing my Dad to prostate cancer and having friends experience mental health issues.
Over the last four years, I’ve learnt firsthand the importance of doing what we can to support Men’s health, both physically and mentally. I have men’s infertility issues and underwent IVF to conceive our first child with my wife, Kit. In January 2023, we lost our baby boy, Arlo, who was stillborn at 38 weeks and 5 days. My world was turned upside down and I’m committed to speaking out about the impact it’s had on me and how I can support others going through both infertility and loss.
I'm one of the lucky ones. I have a supportive group of friends and family, and a workplace that genuinely cares about me. I read a story of a father who took his own life after he and his wife lost their IVF twins (after 10 gruelling years) after they were born stillborn. I'm supporting Movember this year for that man, his family and in the hope of providing much-needed funds to stop men from dying too young.
