This Movember I've decided to donate my face to raising awareness about prostate cancer. My donation and commitment is the growth of a moustache for the entire month of Movember, which I know will generate conversation, controversy and laughter. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. One man dies every hour from the disease in the UK. This is a cause that I feel passionately about and I'm asking you to support my efforts by making a donation to The Prostate Cancer Charity. To help Click this link uk.movember.com/donate/your-details/member_id/1137380/ and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account . The Prostate Cancer Charity will use the money raised by Movember for the development of programs related to awareness, public education, advocacy, support of those affected, and research into the prevention, detection, treatment and cure of prostate cancer. For more details on the impact Movember is having please visit uk.movemberfoundation.com/research-and-programs. Thank you in advance for helping me to support men's health. Iestyn Pocock

Fair play to you Iestyn!
As some of you may already know, a former teammate of mine at the Burton Park Country Club, Bill Watson, has been diagnosed with this terminally. So raising the awareness is key, in the points you've already pointed out.
My wife was diagnosed with breast cancer a year ago, but having caught it relatively early, she's optimistic that she'll beat this terrible disease.
So doing all we can to donate or like Iestyn is doing, showing his support in wearing a "handlebar" mustache, makes a little effort go a long way! ;D
