Hey guys,gals and clowns...

During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I’ll be growin a moustache. That’s right I’m bringing the Mo back because I’m passionate about changing the state of men’s health and i wanna look like the greats..Boony..Merv...Bretts mum...

Male health is a major issue, did you know:

Men are far less healthy than women. The average life expectancy of males is 6 years less than females.
Every year in Australia 2,700 men die of prostate cancer – more than the number of women who die from breast cancer.
Depression affects 1 in 6 men…Most don’t seek help. Untreated depression is a leading risk factor for suicide. Rates of suicide are more than double the national road toll.
thats the serious bit...so its for a decent cause..it saves me getting a finger poked in me bum!!
Help me change the face of men’s health by sponsoring my mo.

Please go to http://www.movember.com.au/au/sponsor, enter my Rego number which is 8161 and your credit card details.

The money raised by Movember will be used to change the face of men's health by creating awareness and funding research into prostate cancer and male depression.

Movember culminates at the end of the month at the Gala Partè where I’ll be parading my Mo on the cat walk for a chance to be crowned the Man of Movember. If you want to be part of this great night you’ll have to purchase a Gala Parte ticket for $33.00 (inc GST).

Cheers

Neka.....

Well done mate, tho truth is more likely just an excuse not to shave. Good to see you putting your body on the line for a cause.

Sponsorship done.

It's not too late to organise a KSRC team if anyone wants to.

Good on ya Neka, unfortunately this issue does not get anywhere near as much media attention as breast cancer

stevew_zzr · Post by **stevew_zzr** » Thu Oct 26, 2006 9:08 am

Actually - i don't mind breasts getting media attention

Glen · Post by **Glen** » Thu Oct 26, 2006 9:08 am

I think it because doctors (Male ones that is) probably much prefer doing breast examinations than prostate examinations
