Hyne Timber has ranked in the top 100 in the nation for its fundraising and mo growing efforts throughout Movember.
A record of 49 male employees across a number of the 11 Hyne Timber sites signed up to the Hyne Timber Mo Bro Challenge team, collectively raising $12,896 so far.
David Murtagh, Hyne Timbers Manager for People and Risk said he fully supported Movember, in particular the opportunity to raise awareness about men’s health issues,
“Movember is about getting men talking about health issues, something we aren’t very good at, while raising funds and having some fun along the way.
“We never lost sight of the purpose by circulating weekly ‘mogress’ reports around the company with fun photos and a more serious message about prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health.
“I can’t say I personally enjoyed growing and grooming a mo for a month but it’s worth it for the opportunity to raise awareness. “Being able to raise $12,896 and ranking in the top 100 nationwide is an added bonus.” Mr Murtagh concluded.
