Story

Hi all!

I am back to work after 3 lovely weeks off spending time with our newest addition. As you all are aware, the situation regarding COVID-19 is still dire and work will be a lot different to how it was before I went on leave.

In order ensure our face masks give us the best protection possible, it is recommended to be beard-free (which I have not been for the best part of 10 years!) Since the hair started disappearing on top, I tried to compensate by growing facial hair and have attempted to maintain this look since! However now is the time to temporarily part ways with this precious hair and say goodbye. Hoping to of course be re-united soon!

I am therefore joining the MOVID-19 team and keeping a beautiful moustache to help raise money for the NHS Charities Together COVID-19 urgent appeal. The money will be used to support front-line NHS staff and volunteers.

I would be most grateful if you could spare a few pennies to donate to this brilliant cause and hopefully reach my target!

Thank you Smita Odedra for taking this picture and make me look somewhat presentable. We’ve included Sarina to distract you all from the slug above my lips. And thanks to Nirav Shah for the inspiration! 

I nominate Tony Kameel Shahir Chowdhury Sarus Jain Amrit Chowdhary

Cheers guys!

Grow a Moustache - Support NHS staff.The MOVID-19 team have pledged to grow a moustache throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in a show of solidarity with NHS staff/volunteers and to raise vital funds for them.

We are raising funds for the NHS Charities Together COVID-19 urgent appeal. This money will be used to support frontline NHS staff and volunteers working night and day to protect us against COVID-19.

Growing a moustache is an easy and fun. We want as many people as possible to get involved to show support, boost morale and raise vital funds for the NHS staff protecting us.
