Oakland’s technology team have come together in support of Movember, the annual November charity campaign dedicated to men’s health, specifically prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention.
To spark open conversations around men’s health, the Technology Team is making a noticeable impact across the company, not just through their growing moustaches, but also through growing momentum. Beyond facial hair, some team members are taking on the challenge of completing 60km through walking, biking, swimming, or rowing.
Chief Technology Officer, Steve Naylor, commented: “This initiative came directly from our tech team, and I couldn’t be prouder.
“Movember is about more than growing moustaches; it’s about raising awareness and driving real change. We’re excited to see our colleagues and community come together for such a worthy cause.”
Throughout November, participants are encouraged to:
• Grow a Mo: Sport a moustache to spark conversations and raise awareness.
• Move for Movember: Walk or run 60km to honour the 60 men lost to suicide every hour globally.
• Donate or Share: Every contribution counts.

Oakland will be sharing the team’s updates, photos, and progress throughout the month to celebrate their growing achievements and to inspire others to take part.
Added Steve: “The team saw an opportunity to make a difference and ran with it. Their energy and creativity are now helping to inspire colleagues across the company to support and get involved.”
