Decembeard is a campaign run by Bowel Cancer UK to raise money and awareness for bowel cancer . The idea is that anyone can sign up to get involved by ditching the razor and growing a beard .
Thousands of people are experiencing delays in diagnosis and treatment due to coronavirus , on top of this , Bowel Cancer UK is experiencing a drop of income of around 40 %. By taking part in this year ’ s Decembeard campaign , Bowel Cancer UK can help ensure that they save lives and improve the quality of life of all those affected by bowel cancer .
Some of our fantastic teachers at Marr are taking part in this campaign to raise money and awareness for bowel cancer . Mr
Baillie , a music teacher here , is heading the campaign at Marr and is supporting and encouraging a group of teachers who are also ditching the razor for a good cause , including Mr Docherty , Mr Bell , Mr Reid , Mr Marshall , Mr Russell and Mr McLean .
