Wellington · Our story
Our story.
Our community.
Move to Improve grew out of Wellington’s running community and years of showing up together for men’s health.
Movement brings us together. Connection helps us improve.
One community. Many ways to move.
People, connection and a shared purpose.
Where it
all began.
Years of movement. A community growing together.
For more than five years, Movember Ambassador and Zone Blue Run Club founder Ben Edusei has helped bring people together through community Movember events. Across those years, the community has collectively raised more than $100,000—and created space for people to connect and have conversations that matter.
In 2026, that foundation is growing into Move to Improve: a month of movement and connection across Wellington. Building on the local run community, we’re opening up more ways to belong. You can run, walk, train, stretch, recover, volunteer, cheer or simply come along for a conversation.
At the heart of MTI is a simple belief: movement brings us together, and connection helps us improve. We want people to feel welcomed, supported and comfortable showing up as themselves. We’re independently organised in Wellington and proudly support Movember, with community wellbeing at the centre of everything we do.
Fundraising is encouraged, but it is never a condition of being part of the community.
