MOUSTACHES abound at Frankston police station in Fletcher Rd.
The boys in blue are relishing their chance to take part in the Movember movement, supporting a great cause in helping raise awareness of the big health issues faced by men – while having a bit of fun.
Over the past five years the police team has raised $29,215, with team captain Senior Constable Scott Middenway saying the amount raised so far this November is already more than $3200.
The police regard Movember as a great opportunity to connect with and support the community with a common goal of helping men live happy and healthier lives.
Since Movember started in Melbourne in 2003, more than $770 million has been raised helping fund 1200 projects focused on prostate cancer, testicular cancer and suicide prevention.
The organisation aims to “make strong progress” on the three key health problems before tackling the many other critical health challenges men often experience.
Those wanting to get on board and support the cause can donate to the Frankston Police Station Team at the Movember site at moteam.co/frankston-police-station
