Bowel Cancer Australia’s Post

Bowel cancer is the third most common cancer in men. 7,833 Aussie men are diagnosed with bowel cancer each year, including 848 under age 50. That’s why we’ve dedicated the final month of the year to our hair-raising campaign - Decembeard. Launched in 2013 as a quirky way to draw attention to Australia’s second deadliest cancer and start a conversation about a topic that can sometimes be difficult to discuss. Our passionate community of supporters have been embracing their facial hair to help create real change ever since. Using Decembeard Australia as an opportunity to encourage their fathers, brothers, husbands, partners, family members and friends to find out about bowel cancer and grow a beard to raise awareness and funds for Bowel Cancer Australia. A very big thank you to everyone that has already signed up, we're excited to follow along with your Decembeard journey. Special thanks to Brendan and Phil for lending their beards to the cause, and to Lucy for volunteering her time to capture the fabulous photos. Sign up today at decembeard.org.au and join the beardwagon. #DecembeardAU #BowelCancerAustralia #Never2Young
