TODAY is the halfway point in the annual Movember moustache-growing charity challenge.
Thousands of blokes have been growing and nurturing upper lip hair since the beginning of the month.
They have been sponsored by friends, family and colleagues to keep it in place for 30 days in order to raise funds and awareness for men’s health causes covering prostate and testicular cancer and mental health.
Since starting in Australia in 2003 Movember has become a global movement. Last year more than 1.1 million ‘Mo Bros’ took part, raising £92 million.
