Event Details
The first documented moustache was captured in a portrait of an ancient Iranian horseman dating back to 300 BC. While the ’tache hasn’t changed much since then, it has become more mainstream thanks to mo’ legends like Clark Gable, Tom Selleck [pictured] and Daley Thompson shaving the way for the modern man to rock the upper lip furniture year round. If you’re not quite ready for that commitment, November – or Movember – is your chance to grow your mo’ for a month in order to raise money for men’s health causes.
If you’re planning on joining in, make sure you’re part of the Square Mile Movember Challenge. Last year we not only raised nearly £600,000, we were the largest fundraiser in the UK – and the seventh largest in the world. Take that, Wall Street! (We beat our US cousins by £717.)
