november 2025

November is Men’s Mental Health month; this year Matthew, your VP Education, and David, your VP Societies and Sports, are highlighting this in the month long campaign of MENtion It! 

They’ll be seeking to get rid of the stigma surrounding mental health that men often experience. The month will include events dedicated to this goal, partnering with the RHUL wellbeing team, ALS, and student groups on campus. 

They’ll also be highlighting the amazing work our student groups do every year in Movember and the money they raise for the charity. Movember is an annual event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men's health issues. We will also be running a Movember fundraiser of our own so keep an eye out for that!  

This November make Men’s Mental Health a priority and don’t bottle it up; MENtion It.
