Hi Guys

Check out this video clip, men it’s worth watching.

It’s now Movember along with some others friends from the Band of Brothers men’s group that I lead at St Paul’s Crofton. We will be starting to grow a moustache for Movember to raise funds and awareness for men’s health. It’s going to be a hairy journey and I want you to be part of it.

As most of you know, Movember last year was a significant time for my health, as this journey all started last November, when the design agency I was working at decided to get involved in Movember. Six guys including myself started Movember clean shaven and grew moustaches throughout the month to raise money. During the month we took photos every day of our moustaches progress. At the end of the month I was putting together these images to make a slideshow. It was at this time that I noticed that the left side of my face was bigger than the righthand side. So I checked my neck out and realised my neck was swollen under my left ear and jaw. This kick started my journey to the doctors and hospitals, which turned out to be tumour in my neck, which hopefully could be operated on before the end of Movember this year.

You can see our team at moteam.co/bandofbros-spc and if you feel as strongly as I do about changing the face of men’s health, enlist for Movember and JOIN OUR TEAM now. If you can’t join us please support our team by sponsoring our team page or sponsor me individually at mobro.co/neiljeremy1.

A moustache is the mark of a man, and today it is a symbol to spark conversations about important health issues. So guys, pledge to grow a Mo today, or ladies, join the team to support my Mo.

United we Mo.

My story all started last November, when the design agency I was working in decided to get involved in Movember. Six guys including myself started Movember clean shaven and grew our moustaches throughout the month to raise money.

Movember is responsible for the sprouting of millions of moustaches around the world. With their “Mo’s” men raise vital funds and awareness for prostate and testicular cancer and mental health. As an independent global charity, Movember’s vision is to have an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health.

During this month we took photos every day of all our progress. At the end of the month I was putting all these images together to make a slideshow of our progress. It was at this time that I noticed that the left side of my face was quite balanced with my right side. So I felt and checked my neck I realised there was something not even. This kick started my journey to the doctors and hospitals and I have my involvement in Movember to thank for this.
