UWLSU's Men's Rugby team - the Ealing Rangers - have spent the whole of November fundraising for men's mental health charity, Movember.
The team have raised astounding numbers for a meaningful cause. Over the last month, the Rangers have collectively fundraised £5,119 for Movember. Let's dive into all the events that took place...

Volunteering at Lammas Park
The team went down to Lammas Park, to help dig their new pond! Players spent the day doing the heavy lifting to help out the community.
"I'd like to give a shoutout for the boys that came and did volunteering for the V Team - think it's a tradition now!" Rhys, UWL Rugby
Run Across London
Different players did their own runs to raise money through the month. A group of them also got together to run through central London, holding the Movember flag!
UWLSU want to say a huge congratulations to the whole on Men's Rugby for how much awareness and money they have raised for the Movember cause. It's something to be incredibly proud of!
