$100k raised for Movember

From humble beginnings with a few ‘blokes’ having lunch at a pub, the 18th annual Movember ‘Gentlemen of Geelong’ Lunch was held at Flyign Brick Cider House, Wallington on Friday November 24.

More than 200 hairy lads attending, the event raised $100,000, easily eclipsing last year’s $60,000.

All funds raised go to the boy’s 2024 selected charities which historically have included the National Centre for Farmer Health, Lifeline, Movember Foundation, Australian Prostate Centre, Barwon Health, Beyond Blue, RUOK, Aussie Helpers and International Association for Suicide Prevention.

Former Collingwood player and coach Nathan Buckley was guest speaker and radio personality Ian Cover was MC.

Voice photographer Ivan Kemp was there to take photos.
