THERE are only a few tickets left for the SPM Law Movember charity lunch tomorrow at Gaston Bar and Grill.
Now in his fifth year, SPM Law partner Michael Sobey doesn’t need much mo-tivation to throw away the razor growing a moustache as part of the global men’s health movement and fund-raiser, Movember.
The Movember Foundation encourages all men to grow a moustache throughout the month of November, plus raise funds for research and increase awareness of prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health.
To help raise funds, Michael will host a charity lunch at Gaston Bar and Grill, Noosa Heads, on 21 November, from 12.30pm.
Tickets are $100 per person and include a three-course meal and two-hour drink package and are available now through the SPM Law team. Phone 5440 4800 or email sroughly@spmlaw.com.au to book your table.
