Staff at Skipton Financial Services take part in the annual Movember challenge
Twelve members of staff at Skipton Financial Services are sporting new moustaches.
The men are taking part in Movember - a month-long event involving the growing of moustaches during November to raise awareness of prostate cancer and other male cancers.
The goal of the initiative is to "change the face of men's health” by increasing early cancer detection, diagnosis and effective treatments, and ultimately reduce the number of deaths.
Matthew Cox, communications & PR manager and one of the “Mo Bros”, said: “We are always up for a charity challenge at Skipton Financial Services so jumped at the chance to support Movember for the first time. We are happy to not let the fact we look ridiculous for a month distract us from our aim of raising a lot of money.”
