Ablestoke Consulting Head of Operations raises money for Charity

 
Ablestoke Consulting Head Of Operations - Michael Casey is raising money this month as it is MOVEMBER!

"This Movember and I've decided to donate my face to raising awareness about prostate cancer. 

    My  donation and commitment is the growth of a moustache for the entire month of Movember, which I know will generate conversation, controversy and laughter at Ablestoke, however...

  Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. One man dies every hour from the disease in the UK. This is a cause that I feel passionately about and I'm asking you to support my efforts by making a donation to The Prostate Cancer Charity. To help, you can either:

  -    Click this link http://uk.movember.com/donate/your-details/member_id/1183968/ and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account . Or,

  -    Send cheques and CAF vouchers (made payable to 'The Prostate Cancer Charity Re Movember') directly to The Prostate Cancer Charity, First Floor, Cambridge House, Cambridge Grove, London W6 0LE. Be sure to include the person's name on the back of the cheque.

  Critical illness awareness is an important part of the work of Ablestoke Consulting. The Prostate Cancer Charity will use the money raised by Movember for the development of programs related to awareness, public education, advocacy, support of those affected, and research into the prevention, detection, treatment and cure of prostate cancer.

For more details on the impact Movember is having please visit http://uk.movemberfoundation.com/research-and-programs.

Thank you in advance for helping me to support men's health".

Michael Casey - Ablestoke Consulting
