<\/a>The Olympic medallist is helping\u00a0Coles trim the stigma around men’s health one conversation at a time. Garside\u2019s appearance created a literal buzz and marked the launch of Coles’ annual national Movember campaign, aiming to cut above last year’s record-breaking $1.7 million donation.<\/p>\nColes Group has been Movember\u2019s major partner since 2010 and has raised more than $6 million in support of men\u2019s mental health, suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer initiatives. This year\u2019s campaign is set to raise the bar(ber).\u00a0Until\u00a02 December 2025, Coles will donate 50 cents from every men\u2019s deodorant, grooming and incontinence product sold in-store and online. Coles Bakery is also joining the cause, donating 10 cents from every Movember Biscuit sold. Customers can pick up favourites like Coles Burger Sauce, MasterFoods sauces, Nando\u2019s, Mission Foods, Bonds and Amaysim, with selected items contributing between 10 cents and $1.00 each to the Mo movement.Harry Garside said Coles\u2019 Movember campaign is helping to reshape how men think about self-care.\u201cMovember is more than moustaches it\u2019s about starting conversations and making health awareness part of our everyday lives. Coles is making it easy for Aussies to back the movement simply by picking up a men\u2019s self-care product or grabbing a Movember biscuit from the bakery.\u201cMovember reminds us that self-care is strength, not weakness, and caring about our appearance as men reflects a deeper care for our wellbeing. No matter what people think, looking after yourself isn\u2019t just about gym sessions or diets, it\u2019s about mental health, regular check-ups, and yes, even grooming.\u201dActing Coles Group Corporate Affairs Officer Jace Armstrong said\u00a0the partnership continues to cut through in the fight for men’s health.\u00a0\u201cThrough our long-standing partnership with Movember, and with the incredible support of our team members, customers and suppliers, Coles has helped fund thousands of men\u2019s health initiatives,\u201d he said.\u201cEach year, our team members enthusiastically take part in the Movember Coles Group Challenge, and we\u2019re inviting customers to get involved too, whether by picking up men\u2019s personal care products, selected sauces and corn chips, or our limited-edition Coles Bakery Movember Cookie throughout the month.\u201dDirector of Partnerships for Movember, Kieran Ryan thanked Coles for once again stepping up as a true champion for men\u2019s health.\u00a0\u201cBy making it easy for customers to support the movement while they shop, they\u2019re helping to spark vital conversations and raise funds for mental health, suicide prevention, prostate and testicular cancer initiatives. Every donation, every interaction at the Movember pop-up barber station, and every purchase of a participating product helps us make a real difference in the lives of men across Australia.<\/p>\n
