Movember arrives at NULC

Students from Newcastle-under-Lyme College (NULC) will be donning their moustaches for an event in aid of Movember on Friday 8 November at 12noon.

Kyle Yeo, aged 20 from Market Drayton is in his final year studying the Foundation degree (Fd) in Graphic Design at NULC.  Kyle explains what will be happening during the day: “I’ve set up a photography studio in the Food Hall where staff and students will be able to have a professional photograph taken wearing fake and comical moustaches for a small donation.”

Kyle has also gained the support of fellow students studying Music Technology who will be providing both pre recorded and live music sets at the event and students studying the Fd in Digital Media Production will be filming the event.

Kyle added: “The photographs and film will help to raise awareness of Movember and essential funds for men’s health charities including Prostrate Cancer UK.”

The former Madeley High School pupil explains why he organized the event: “The event will give me plenty of photos that can be used as part of my portfolio and also gaining necessary photography experience as well as event organisation skills.”
 
During November staff and students at the College will be organising a range of events to raise money for Movember.  The next planned event is ‘Move for Movember’ an 80’s themed Boxercise class at the Gordon Banks Sports Centre on Tuesday 26 November.
