During November each year it has become normal practice for men across the nation to sprout strange and interesting moustaches in the interests of fundraising.

Movember, as the phenomenon is known, aims to raise vital funds and awareness for men's health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.

The male members of the team at The Home Partnership in Chelmsford took up the challenge for 2011, calling themselves Team Tash Factor.

They are proud to confirm that they raised a total of £2,775 for this cause.

Team Tash Factor would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who donated, helping to change the face of men's health.
