Hair raising

Jan 17 | 2012

The Mo the merrier - Pound Gates staff with their assorted fund raising face-fuzz.

Staff at Pound Gates have raised over £6,500 for the Movember charity by taking part in a moustache-growing competition during the month of November.  This figure put the company in the top 100 teams in the UK. 

There were 10 categories in the Pound Gates challenge including: best dodgy-coloured Mo, which went to Dom Nicholls; the lowest visibility Mo, awarded to Kieran Pearce; the highest visibility award was taken by Rob Thacker; and Rob Appleton won the celebrity look-a-like award for his remarkable resemblance to Oliver Hardy. 

The girls too took part with Felicity Taylor making the best Non-Mo contribution as official Cake Master; and Abi Pearce who was voted the ‘sista’ most suited to having a Mo.

The Tim Foster Award for the best Mo went, understandably, to Rob Thacker.
