We are living in dangerous times, gentlemen (and ladies). Global equity markets are collapsing, Ant and Dec have gone AWOL, the Chinese are proposing an elevator into space, Richard Branson thinks we’re bothered if he attempts to kill himself/race across the Atlantic, and, and, prostate cancer is knocking off UK men by the thousands. One man every hour apparently.

To raise awareness and change the face of men's health I like many others will be growing some furry face furniture (a beard not a top-lip turd, not a handlebar, not a soup-strainer, not a Magnum, not a hairy caterpillar, not a Dirty Sanchez, not a lip-warmer and no Walrus whiskers).

So please dig deep and donate now.

I'll be posting a video of my No Shave November adventure on vimeo.com when the challenge is complete.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
