Welcome to The Republic of Movember

Sourced: Movember Foundation

Movember (the month formerly known as November) is an annual charity event held during November.

At the start of Movember guys register with a clean shaven face. The Movember participants, known as Mo Bros, have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their Mo, raising money along the way to benefit men's health - specifically prostate cancer and male depression.

Movember culminates at the end of the month at official Gala Partés, Mo-Office and Mo-Town parties where Tom Selleck and Borat look-a-likes battle it out for their chance to be the Man of Movember.

While growing a Mo is left to the guys, Mo Sistas (ladies who support their guys or just love Mo's!) form an important part of Movember by recruiting Mo Bros, helping to raise funds and attending the highly anticipated Gala Partés.

Health Minister to launch new subsidy

Sourced: Diabetes Australia Dated: 31.10.2008

The Minister for Health and Ageing, the Hon Nicola Roxon MP, will this Saturday launch the ‘Type 1 Diabetes Insulin Pump Program’ – a new collaboration between the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), Diabetes Australia and the Department of Health and Ageing.

Carers of children under 18 that have type 1 diabetes will now be able to apply for subsidies of between $500 and $2,500 towards the purchase of an insulin pump, with new funding from the Australian Government announced in the budget earlier this year.

This program will potentially impact around 700 Australian children with type 1 diabetes who would benefit from moving from multiple daily insulin injection of insulin pump therapy.
