Ware & Kay Solicitors Raising Awareness In Support Of Movember

This Movember, Ware & Kay Solicitors Ltd will be raising vital funds and awareness for men's health.  David Hyams, Director and Charles Stent, Solicitor (both in the Commercial Team) at the York office have decided to put themselves forward for the challenge.

The Movember Foundation is the leading global organisation committed to changing the face of men's health.  They achieve this by challenging men to grow moustaches during Movember (the month formerly known as November) to spark conversation and raise funds for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems. The team at Ware & Kay think this is a very worthy cause because too many men are dying unnecessarily from prostate cancer.  Each year, 40,000 men in the UK alone are diagnosed with prostate cancer. The Movember Foundation is working tirelessly every day with an urgent goal in mind: accelerating breakthroughs in prostate cancer research that will benefit patients and their families. Movember is achieving this by the formation of the largest global alliance of prostate cancer researchers and clinical specialists, who are tackling the toughest prostate cancer challenges.

David Hyams said: "I am delighted to support this great cause and get involved.  It is a great opportunity to raise awareness of men's health and it certainly creates a talking point. People do not find it easy to talk about men's health and Movember is a great way of breaking down that taboo. By taking part in Movember will ensure that we make a real impact on the men and their families affected by this disease.  It would be simple to just sit back and do nothing, but it we wanted to do something significant".
