Among them are Darryl Johnston and Alex Milne from Brown and Hurley in Tamworth, who grew moustaches for the awareness month and raised $1200 between them for men’s health charities.
It was Mr Johnston’s first time as a Movember participant. He said he’d received all sorts of comments about his new look, but he’d enjoyed the experience and would consider growing a mo again next year.
“It was a great team effort and it’s for a good cause, and we just want to thank everyone who supported us,” he said yesterday.

“I said to my partner this morning I might keep it – but she doesn’t think so,” Mr Johnston laughed.
