DUBC raises almost £3,500 for Movember

This year we decided to fundraise for the men’s health charity, Movember. They raise awareness for men’s health issues such as suicide prevention, testicular cancer and prostate cancer.

The squad had some huge fundraising efforts, particularly from Ollie and James who raised £460 and £340 respectively, placing them as the 11th and 20th highest fundraisers in the University. In addition, challenges included Matt pledging to run a marathon and numerous head shaves.

As a team we raised just shy of £3,500 and were the 6th highest team in the University, which raised over £60,000. Given the modest squad size of 34 men, this is particularly impressive and I’d like to thank all of the families and friends for their support.

While few managed to grow an impressive (or even noticeable) moustache, we do hope that our work goes some way toward Movember’s efforts.

Sincerely,
Jasper den Dulk
President 2021/22
