Visitors to Utility Masters over the last few weeks have been forgiven for their strange glances around the office, as the male staff all grew fantastic facial hair in aid of Tachetastic, a fund-raising competition for The Prostate Cancer Charity.

The gents each made a donation, and some of the ladies put up their own money to sit on the judging panel - raising £270. Utility Masters Directors matched the amount, totalling a splendid £540 donation to help the charity provide the support, information and research needed to tackle prostate cancer.

Tim Whiting's magnificent moustachio'd mush won the analyst a trophy and the pride of his impressive victory.
