🎗️ Movember Awareness Month 🎗️

Every November, millions come together to raise awareness about men’s health—because it’s time to break the silence around issues that affect men disproportionately.

Movember focuses on:
✔️ Mental health and su***de prevention
✔️ Prostate cancer awareness and research
✔️ Testicular cancer education and support

Did you know that men are less likely to seek help or talk openly about their health? Movember encourages conversations, early detection, and taking action.

Growing a moustache, hosting events, or simply sharing the message can save lives. Let’s stand together to support men in living longer, healthier, and happier lives.

💬 Join the movement. Spread awareness. Make a difference.

Selling Poppies for Remembrance Day 🌺

Today is all about supporting the Royal British Legion and honouring all those who have served and sacrificed for our country. Wearing a poppy is a simple but powerful way to show gratitude and remember the bravery of our Armed Forces, past and present.

Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference to veterans and their families. If you see poppies being sold today, stop by, say hello, and wear yours with pride — let’s keep their memory alive. ❤️

🧠 World Stroke Day – October 29 🧠

Every 2 seconds, someone in the world experiences a stroke. It’s one of the leading causes of disability—and sadly, it can also be life-threatening.

But there is hope. Up to 90% of strokes are linked to preventable risk factors. With greater awareness, faster treatment, and improved support, many strokes can be avoided—and many lives can be saved.

World Stroke Day is a global call to action. It reminds us of the importance of:
✔️ Recognizing the warning signs (think FAST: Face, Arms, Speech, Time)
✔️ Taking steps to reduce our risk through healthy choices
✔️ Supporting stroke survivors and caregivers
✔️ Advocating for access to quality care and rehabilitation for everyone, everywhere

This year’s theme focuses on the power of knowledge—because knowing the signs and risks can truly make the difference between life, disability, and recovery.

💬 On this important day, let’s share what we know, learn what we don’t, and work together to build a healthier, more stroke-aware world.
