Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men. Too many men are ‘toughing it out’, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. The Movember Foundation is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030.

Mr Tolley, Mr Banks, Mr Lynch, Mr Vazquez and Mr Smith decided to grow facial hair throughout November to generate funds for the Movember Foundation.

Mr Tolley said, “I can say we have been truly overwhelmed by the generosity of staff and even pupils who have joined in and donated and can say, after putting on the cash donations we have received, we will have raised over £1000 for Movember.  This is amazing as we started off with a target of just £250 and we have smashed it!

There is still time to contribute.  Please use the link https://moteam.co/hu-mo-nities

 

Well done guys.
