Moustache-momento as Bunnings backs men’s mental health

Bunnings Trade is showing its support for men’s health with the launch of a new moustache-patterned drink bottle to raise funds for Movember. Customers can get their hands on the limited-edition drink bottle for $25 RRP, with all funds raised going directly to changing the face of men’s health in New Zealand.

On average, men are dying 3.5 years earlier than women in New Zealand and largely for preventable reasons. Movember is dedicated to improving men’s health and helping them to live happier, healthier, longer lives. Throughout November, the charity is raising awareness and funds for men’s health issues such as mental health, suicide prevention, prostate and testicular cancer and Bunnings Trade is supporting their efforts.

Movember New Zealand country manager, Robert Dunne, says, “You don’t have to grow a moustache to support Movember, there are lots of ways you can get behind men’s health this month. Grabbing a co-branded Movember drink bottle from Bunnings is a fantastic way for New Zealanders to support the cause this year.

“We are so appreciative of Bunnings Trade’s support for another year and we’re looking forward to seeing Movember drink bottles everywhere from trade sites and the gym to offices and schools.”

With the help of customer donations through the purchase of exclusive Bunnings Trade Movember merch, Bunnings Trade has helped raise over $100k for men’s health over the past two years.

Matt Heinrich, head of Bunnings Trade NZ, says Bunnings Trade values the importance of promoting mental health awareness and better health and wellbeing for Kiwi men.

“We’re really proud to be partnering with Movember again this year. Our team is looking forward to getting involved in another fundraising drive and supporting the cause.”
