Did you know that a one-month-old moustache is capable of holding approximately 30ml of liquid – more than 5% pint – before leaking its contents down the face of its owner. Don’t believe us? There’s only one way to find out – giving a mo a go this November.
Of course, there are a few better reasons than this to raise money for Movember. For starters, more than 10,500 men with prostate cancer will die in the UK this year alone – and prostate cancer rates are predicted to double in the next 15 years.
Testicular cancer rates have already doubled in the last 50.
Three quarters of suicides are men; poor mental health leads to half a million men taking their own life every year – that’s one every minute.
And the Movember Foundation is uniquely placed to address these crises at a global level. Movember funds ground-breaking programmes all over the world, engaging with men to understand what works best, and to help make change happen sooner.
So what do you need to do? Sign up to the Square Mile Financial Challenge network on Movember’s website – and grow a mo this November.
All people who have registered and fundraised as part of the Square Mile Financial Challenge will have the chance to win 1 of 5 Eton Shirt & Invisible Tie clips.
