Canotec staff copy Village People to support Movember

HAIRY MO-MENTS: Pictured from left are Canotec’s Duane Flavell, Lee Bradley, Steve Cooper, Steve Barrat, Richard Vinall, Ben Elmore, David Newman and Mike Way.
IT’S not the sort of apparel one would expect at a business meeting.
But staff at Ringwood-based Canotec, which specialises in digital copiers technology, have been getting into the swing of things for the Movember campaign.
They’ve grown drop-down moustaches to emulate those from iconic disco band Village People, with Movember donations from staff, family and business contacts raising awareness and money for men’s health issues.
Company founder David Newman, pictured second from right as biker cop ‘Scar’, said: “We’ve had great support from everyone for our spirited efforts in Movember and we’ve had a few requests to enact Village People’s Macho Man and YMCA – we might have to save those for the Christmas party!”
