Movember at Wolves SU: Supporting Men’s Health Together
This Movember, Wolverhampton Students’ Union is coming together to raise awareness and start conversations around men’s health. From mental wellbeing to physical fitness, we’re hosting a range of events designed to support, empower, and engage our community.
What is Movember?
Movember is a global movement that takes place every November to raise awareness and funds for men’s health. The charity focuses on key issues that affect men worldwide, including mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.
By growing a moustache, moving for Movember, or hosting events, people everywhere come together to spark conversations and challenge the stigma around men’s health — because talking saves lives.
Join us throughout Movember as we take part in activities that encourage connection, wellbeing, and a little bit of friendly fun — all while breaking the stigma around men’s mental and physical health.
Brave the Shave & Barbershop Sessions
Get involved and Brave the Shave to raise awareness and show support for men’s health. Whether you’re going for a full shave or just a tidy up, our on-campus barbershop will also be offering free facial trims for those taking part in Movember.
🕒 Date & Time: 3rd November 2025, 10-2pm
📍 Location: Luna Lounge, City Campus
Weekly Sports Sessions at Walsall Campus
In collaboration with WLV Sport, we will be hosting weekly sports sessions at Walsall Campus throughout Movember. These sessions are open to everyone who wants to get moving, socialise, and support the cause.
Staying active is one of the best ways to boost your mood and wellbeing, and these sessions aim to promote active wellbeing while encouraging men to open up about mental health in a relaxed and supportive space.
