Sport staff became 'Mo Bro's' for charity

Four members of male staff from NULC took part in Movember, a national campaign to raise money for The Prostate Cancer Charity. 


The staff included Ross Cope, Steve Sumnal and Steve Teasdale from the Sport department and David Matthews, a member of the Senior Management Team at NULC.


Movember is an annual, month-long celebration of the moustache, aimed at highlighting male health issues, specifically prostate cancer.

The ‘Mo Bros’ started their moustache growing challenge on 1 November clean shaven and then had the remainder of the month to grow and groom their moustache.

A shave-a-thon took place on 1 December at Transform Salon and Spa at the College where Level 2 Beauty students helped to remove the month-long moustache growth!

Over £1000 was raised by the staff for The Prostate Cancer Charity.
