Anyone that knows me knows my embarrasing and often humiliating attempts at growing facial hair. This Movember will be the first that puberty will give me an outside chance of actually growing a tash!

So I thought I'd mark this entry into manhood by growing a mowser and raising cash and awareness of men's health issues whilst I'm at it. I will be raising money for Prostate Scotland. They are a Scottish charity set up to provide information, advice and help on prostate health and diseases of the prostate. Nearly 1 in 2 men in Scotland will be affected by prostate disease at some stage of their lives and 1 in 12 will develop prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Scotland. Visit www.prostatescotland.org.uk and http://uk.movember.com for more information!

I will be starting off clean shaven on the 1 November and will update here, my facebook (facebook.com/paddyhastie) and twitter (@paddyhastie) daily with progress and pictures.

I never do this sort of thing so please, please, please give me some of your hard earned money, a couple of pounds is all I’m asking for and it will make a big difference.

 

Thank you,

Paddy
