Now in its seventh year down under, December is Decembeard for Bowel Cancer Australia.

A hair–raising fundraiser held during the month of December (1-31 December), Decembeard encourages men to grow a beard or some chin stubble in the final month of the year to raise awareness and much needed funds for bowel cancer.

Bowel cancer (also known as colorectal cancer) is the third most common type of newly diagnosed cancer in Australia.

15,253 Australians are told they have bowel cancer each year, including 2,186 people under the age of 55.

Australia is the leading national charity dedicated to prevention, early diagnosis, research, quality treatment and the best care for everyone affected by bowel cancer.
