This year, we have come together as a team to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues with our Movember 2020 initiative.
This year, we took part in the Movember challenge, raising £5,580 for the charity that aims to change the face of men’s health. All the funds raised will help Movember charity stop men dying too young – contributing to ground breaking projects and research in prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention.
We are extremely proud of our team for all their efforts to raise money for this incredibly worthy cause and for helping us exceed our target of donations.
Steve Potter, CEO and Founder of Form commented:
“This year has been a challenging time for every business and we can all relate to the issues that charities are facing with the COVID 19 restrictions and people being unable to work. I am staggered with the amount of money we have raised as a team for Movember at this difficult time and take my hat off to everyone who had made sacrifices and gone the extra mile to make this campaign the success it has been. I hope the money goes a little way to making life more comfortable for those in the most need of help and look forward doing it all again next year. Well done Team Form!”
How did we Mo this Movemeber?
To encourage the donations, throughout the month of Movember our staff grew 7 Mo’s, moved 995km and baked 15 cakes & pies. 7 of our Mo Bros started the month clean shaven to grow their moustaches and inspire the conversations about the men’s health issues. Many took up the challenge of ‘Move for Movember’ tracking their weekly walks, jogs, runs and cycle rides, with some individual challenges including virtual team walks during the national lockdown. A team of our hostesses baked some delicious cakes and pies for their families and friends and hosted virtual events.
Our team were logging all their moves and moustache progress on our team’s Mo Space. Follow the link to see the details.
Thank you to everyone who donated and supported us throughout Movember. Here’s to Movember 2021!
