Men with hairy upper lips raise money for charity…………

5 December

Adam Fernandes, Business Development Manager at WKH Chartered Accountants, once again registered for Movember and embraced the hair of the wild. Upon registering he pledged to cultivate a genuine 100% face grown moustache for 30 days to raise awareness and funds for men's health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer.

Adam told us “The reason I started this Movember team, is because I have had a couple of friends and family that have suffered from cancer in the past, luckily most have won the battle against it, but some haven’t. It is something very simple, but very effective that raises awareness, and we have had some laughs on the way. I have been surprised with the support that we have received and hopefully we can grow this year on year (no pun intended!).

The moustache has had its itchy moments and I have found myself stroking it from time to time. People have definitely looked at me and thought– is that for real? – I haven’t been able to go into any meeting, without having to declare why I have had such a thing on my face!

There has been a lot of support from the start, which shows people realise the importance of what we are doing. This is a great cause, great team effort and I’m sure it has put a smile on everyone’s face.”

Adam and 16 of his team members, 6 of them from WKH Chartered Accountants, have cultivated moustaches over the month of November and have raised £2,300 so far.  If you want to make a donation simply log on: http://mobro.co/adambfernandes
