It’s Movember!
It’s Movember! As well as seeing some creative new ‘Mo’s’ this month – you will also be hearing about men’s health issues, their needs and what we can all do to improve the health of men.
We know that on average men in Australia don’t live as long as women. *Men take their own lives at four times the rate of women (that’s five men a day, on average) and accidents, cancer and heart disease all account for the majority of male deaths.
The RAH Research Fund is proud to support research that is improving the health and lives of men. Thanks to our generous donors, Dr John Bolt Head of Urology at the RAH and his team are continuing their important research to help improve treatment outcomes and the lives of South Australian men with prostate cancer.
