Movember, raising awareness of prostate cancer and men's health

The Mo, slang for moustache, and November come together each year for Movember.  This year I’ve decided to donate my face to a worthy cause and join in with the fund raising and awareness campaign.

Movember challenges men to change their appearance and the face of men’s health by growing a moustache. The rules are simple, start Movember 1st  clean shaven and then grow a moustache for the entire month.  The moustache becomes the ribbon for men’s health, the means by which awareness and funds are raised for cancers that affect men.  Much like the commitment to run or walk for charity, the men of Movember commit to growing a moustache for 30 days.

Now this mustache is not comfortable, it’s irritating, but can no way be compared to what some men have to endear suffering with prostate cancer. So, please help me raise funds through Movember’s UK campaign to benefit the The Prostate Cancer Charity (TPCC), the UK’s leading prostate cancer charity. Even if it’s only a £1, it will help.

Why not pop along to my Mo Sace at http://uk.movember.com/mospace/1070488/ and hit the donate button, it’s worth it…
