💙 Movember: Men’s Health Awareness Month 💙

This November, we’re joining the global Movember movement to raise awareness of men’s health — including mental wellbeing, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.

👨‍⚕️ Many men avoid talking about their health, but early detection and open conversations can save lives.

💬 We encourage all our patients to check in with their GP if they have any concerns — no issue is too small.

Let’s work together to break the stigma and support men in prioritising their health. 💪
