Mooovember at Mitchells

The male members of the Mitchells Dairy team may look a little bit different this month - that's because they will be growing moustaches for the Movember campaign!

For anyone who is not aware; the aim of Movember is to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and testicular cancer.

In order to do so, men across the world begin the 1st of 'Movember' with a clean shaven face, then for the entire month, each participant must grow some facial hair from scratch.

Since its humble beginnings in Australia, Movember has grown to become a truly global movement - in 2011, over 854,000 people around the world got on board, raising £79.3 million.

The funds raised in the UK are directed to programmes run directly by Movember and their men’s health partners, Prostate Cancer UK and the Institute of Cancer Research.

For the rest of November, or Movember as it will now be known, the Mitchells team will chart the progress of their moustaches with regular photo updates on our blog, Facebook and Twitter.

Here is a picture of Keith with his two-day old moustache. He looks like he could be capable of growing some fine moustachery, doesn't he?

Over the next four weeks, we will be with Keith and the rest of the team every step of the way as they raise some hairs, and awareness, for Movember.

You might also want to keep an eye on Mooorial’s features as well, as she may consider supporting the men by adorning a mooo-stache.
