First of all, congratulations to Courtenay now that he's finally taken the plunge. It seems like only yesterday when he was planning his wedding list!

Second, congratulations to Anne on her new job at MLC. Anne, I hope you will be happy and successful.

Finally, I'd like to ask you all to help me to raise money for men's health. I have joined a team here in the bank and we are all growing moustaches for "Movember". This charity seeks to raise awareness about men's health issues. It is also being promoted by Rove McManus and a number of high-profile personalities. Read on for further details.

Male health is a major issue, did you know:
Men are far less healthy than women. The average life expectancy of males is 6 years less than females.

Every year in Australia 2,700 men die of prostate cancer – more than the number of women who die from breast cancer.

Depression affects 1 in 6 men…Most don’t seek help. Untreated depression is a leading risk factor for suicide. Rates of suicide are more than double the national road toll.

Help me to change the face of men’s health by sponsoring my mo!

Please go to http://www.movember.com.au/au/sponsor, enter the EIT Mo Bro’s Rego number which is 16560 and your credit card details. All donations of $2 and over are tax deductible.

I will commit to providing a weekly update on the progress of my mo, if you're interested - including pictures - and I'll try to describe the reactions my mo gets in public and the work environment. Please note that I am not the most hersuit person in the world so the results may be disappointing.


I hope you can all help me with this very worthy cause.

All the best,

Rob
