Vintage cars to rev engines and roll through Noosa in support of men’s health

Thousands of drivers from more than 60 countries will come together to drive in style on Sunday 29 September, raising awareness and funds for men’s health.

Noosa will see 15 drivers in classic cars roll down the windows for a leisurely Sunday drive to help lift the profile of men’s health.

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive (DGD) is an on-road fundraising event that unites classic cars – aged 40 years or older – and encourages drivers, and passengers around the world to dress dapper and drive for men’s health.

Movember has been the official charity partner since DGD’s beginning in 2021.

Funds raised are invested in research and programs for prostate cancer and men’s mental health.

To date, funds raised have helped support multiple men’s health projects across Australia, and globally.

Both organisations share the same goal: to bring people together and help change the face of men’s health.

Movember director of innovation Dan Cooper said, “We’re very grateful for the relationship with The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive.”

“Together, we’re encouraging men to take charge of their health in all areas mental and physical.”

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive founder and director Mark Hawwa said, “This Sunday will mark four years of DGD where thousands of drivers worldwide will gather to support men’s health.”

“Anyone who owns a classic car 40 years or older can make a difference in the lives and health of men and their families around the world.

“The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive is an open invitation to classic motoring enthusiasts to take part in driving dapper for men’s health.”
