Hi Guys,

Please take the time to read this,I'm doing it for a great cause Wink

It’s Movember, the month formerly known as November, now dedicated to growing moustaches and raising awareness and funds for men’s health; specifically prostate and testicular cancer. I’m donating my top lip to the cause for 30 days in an effort to help change the face of men’s health. My Mo will spark conversations, and no doubt generate some laughs; all in the name of raising vital awareness and funds for cancer’s affecting men.

Why am I concerned about men’s health?
*1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime
*This year 37,000 new cases of the disease will be diagnosed
*1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime
*26% of men are less likely to go the doctor compared to women

I invite you to join me by registering to grow or by donating to my support of the Mo http://www.movember.com/m/1327634

If you want to go old school you can write a cheque payable to “Movember”, reference my name and Registration Number 1327634 and send it to: Movember Europe, PO Box 68600, London, EC1P 1EF

Funds raised will help make a tangible difference to the lives of others. Through the Movember Foundation and our men’s health partners, The Prostate Cancer Charity and The Institute of Cancer Research, Movember is funding world class awareness, research, educational and support programs which would otherwise not be possible.

For more details on how the funds raised from previous campaigns have been used and the impact Movember is having please click on the links below:

Thank you in advance for helping me change the face of men's health.

I don't think my boss will mind,in fact I think he's more interested to see if I can actually grow a decent tash as my beard growing skills are pretty weak! Crazy

seem to be a lot doing it, but surely just growing a beard is no good unless you get someone to sponsor you?
loads doing it including match of the day lot who looked like a bunch of homeless drunks last night.

tried it in the past but after a week it gets on my tits and irritates me more than the wife

Im not doing it for donations but always grow one in November just to show support. The reason I don't collect anything is because my birthday falls near the end of the month and I always get rid of it for that as I normally go away for the weekend. Lame excuse I know, I can't grow much of one anyway LOL
