MOVEMBER - We're giving it a GROW to save a BRO

THE TEAM AT DAIMLER TRUCKS SUNSHINE COAST ARE "GIVING IT A GROW TO SAVE A BRO" AND PARTNERING THE MOVEMBER FOUNDATION FOR NOVEMBER. DEALER PRINCIPAL CHRIS SPENCE, THE TEAM CAPTAIN, SAYS "THE AIM IS TO NOT ONLY TO RAISE INVALUABLE FUNDS FOR THIS IMPORTANT CAUSE BUT TO HOPEFULLY START CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN THE BOYS ABOUT MEN'S HEALTH AND HAVE SOME FUN ALONG THE WAY.

CHRIS GOES ON TO SAY "WE HAVE A PREDOMINANTLY MALE WORK FORCE HERE AT DAIMLER TRUCKS SUNSHINE COAST AND MEN'S HEALTH TENDS TO BE A TABOO SUBJECT, ESPECIALLY IN THE WORKSHOP. HISTORY SHOWS THAT MEN ARE DYING TOO YOUNG, WITH STAYING SILENT BEING A HUGE CONTRIBUTING FACTOR. THE POSITIVE MESSAGES BEHIND MOVEMBER CAN HOPEFULLY START CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN THE BOYS"
