TWENTY-two members and four staff from an Okehampton fitness club are getting hairy to support prostate cancer research this month.

The men from Phoenix Health Club are taking on the challenge of growing a moustache as part of the Movember Prostate Cancer Charity campaign and aim to raise at least £30 each.

Movember is the charity's largest fundraising event and ­helps raise awareness of the most common cancer in men in the UK.

Owners of the Phoenix Alistair Mason and Lee Carey are joining personal trainer Joss Ware and sports injury therapist John Stangroom in growing moustaches, and there will be a competition to see who grows the best one.
