Directa lads raise money and awareness for Movember

During November, some of our male staff are growing their best moustaches to help raise money and awareness for Movember.

Every year Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men's faces in the UK and around the world. The aim of which is to raise funds and awareness for men's health, specifically for prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.
