NOV rolls around each year and men around the world adopt quirky facial hair to raise funds to support a variety of health campaigns.
As always members of Australia's pharmacy sector will be carefully grooming moustaches - not necessarily with the full backing of their better halves - as part of the annual Movember madness.
Pharmacy of the Year winning proprietor from Cooleman Court Pharmacy and Men's Health Downunder founder, Brad Butt, is taking part in his sixth Movember with the aim of putting "a rocket up men's health, and getting some conversations started".
RSM Australia Health Services Leader and pharmacy business specialist, Peter Saccasan, is also lending his face to raise funds and awareness for mental health services and men's health.
While Butt and Saccasan are representing the community pharmacy sector this Movember, Pharmacy Daily Editor - and father of primary school-aged children - Nick O'Donoghue, has opted against reprising his 2020 mo-growing fundraising efforts for the Pharmacists' Support Service this year.
"In 2020 some of the mothers in my daughter's class WhatsApp group were complaining about a 'suspicious-looking man' hanging round the school," he said.
"It turned out they were talking about me, so I'll give it a miss this year."
