Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The idea for Movember came about in 2003 when a few mates were having a beer in a small bar in Melbourne, Australia.

Inspired by the women's health movement, it was recognized that men were lacking a way to engage and actively involve themselves in their own health. During a conversation about fashion and past trends, the idea came up to bring the moustache back for one month, and in doing so, have some fun, raise a small amount of money and hopefully encourage men to talk about their health with each other.

Since this time, Movember has continued to grow each year, both in terms of participation numbers and funds raised. In its first year, 30 Mo Bros took part in Movember and last year, across the globe more than 173,000 Mo Bro & Sistas got on board, raising more than £14 million across the Movember's men's health partners globally.

To date, Movember has raised £30 million globally for the fight against prostate cancer and depression in men. And, more importantly, as a direct result, male awareness of health issues has improved with Movember helping to spread health messages directly to millions of Mo Bros & Sistas around the world.

Here at Rufus Leonard, we will be giving our colleagues, clients, friends and family all a laugh for one month with our male employees willing to look a little silly all in the name of Charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
