Movember Gala planned
Woy Woy Leagues Club will host a Central Coast Movember Gala event in support of men's health on Friday, November 27.
Event coordinator Mr Shannon Dixon said that, during November, "men ... will shave off their stubble and begin the month long journey of styling and shaping their moustaches.
"During the month of Movember, we aim to raise awareness of prostate cancer and mental health while raising some serious funds for their beneficiaries including Prostate Cancer Council of Australia and BeyondBlue.
"Here on the Central Coast our own efforts raised over $12,000 last year."
Mr Dixon said this year's event would feature great entertainment, giveaways and a charity auction along with the crowning of Best Mo Team, Miss Movember and Man Movember Central Coast.
"Major prizes are needed for these three categories as well as first, second and third prizes for a ticketed raffle to be held on the evening.
"We will accept all donations and participating businesses will receive signage and advertisement wherever possible."
