Movember moustache challenge 13/10/11
During November each year, ‘Movember’ is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces in the UK and around the world.
Men start the beginning of the month clean-
NHS Western Isles Healthy Working Lives Advisor Norma Macleod said: “Big steps have been taken towards changing attitudes and habits relating to men’s health around the world, but there is still much to be done to catch up with the women’s health movement. Via the moustache, Movember aims to fulfil its vision of having an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health by continuing to spark conversation and spread awareness of men’s health each year.”
No matter what country, city or island, Movember will continue to work to change established habits and attitudes men have about their health, to educate men about the health risks they face, getting them to act on that knowledge thereby increasing the chances of early detection, diagnosis and effective treatment.
In the Western Isles, NHS Western Isles Health promotion staff will be using the ‘Movember’ theme to raise awareness of men’s health and to help tackle the stigma associated with men’s health issues.
