Workmates at the Telegraph & Argus print production department are giving up their clean-shave image to grow moustaches for Movember.

The eight men are hoping to raise hundreds of pounds for the national charity appeal to support research into men’s health fighting prostate and testicular cancer.

Dave McCabe, 45, said: “It won't be easy not shaving, there’s a few of us itching already!”

The print pals are getting sponsorship from family, friends and colleagues.
