Get ready for Movember.

Kopykat has just printed all the promotional material for the Movember annual month long celebration of the moustache, highlighting men’s health issues, specifically prostate cancer. The annual event started when 30 Mo Bros got together in a pub in Melbourne, Australia and took part in Movember. Mo Bros supported by their Mo Sistas start from November 1st clean shaven and then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their moustache. Each Mo Bro effectively becomes a walking billboard for men’s health and via their Mo, raises essential funds and awareness for Movember’s men’s health partner – The Prostate Cancer Charity. At the end of Movember, a series of Gala Parties are held to thank Mo Bros and sistas for their fund raising efforts.

Last year across the globe 173,000 Mo Bro & Sistas got on board, raising more than £14 million across Movember’s men’s health partners globally. Over £30 million has now been raised globally for the fight against prostate cancer and depression in men. It will make men aware going forward of the risks they face, thereby increasing early detection, diagnosis and effective treatment.
