We are supporting Movember and encouraging all students and staff to take part to raise awareness about mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer. By growing moustaches, hosting events, or setting personal fitness goals, we’ll join millions of people around the world who are helping men live happier, healthier, and longer lives.
If you are keen to take part, join our Edinburgh Napier challenge where you can see how you are doing compared to other teams and individuals at the University.
You can either fundraise on your own or as part of a team with your sports club, society, course, department or friends!

If you need to create a team, you can give it a name here, select what type of team you are creating e.g sports, uni and then on the next screen, search for “Edinburgh Napier University” as the organisation you would like to join.
