Movember
The serie
‘Krango and Charlie – Being a bad-ass cop’ is a web series of 5 episodes about two ’70’s style New Zealand bad-ass cops. Follow them through their daily activities on the job, and after hours as they work, rest and play, showing us what it really does mean to be a bad-ass ’70’s Kiwi cop! And remember, “It’s all about the Mo, bro!”
The campaign
This project has been put together with the aim of creating some ‘Mo awareness’ for Movember, an annual month-long celebration of the ‘Mo’ (the moustache!) in the month of November. The aim of Movember is to highlight men’s health issues such as prostate cancer, and depression in men.
Mo Bro’s’ grow a ‘mo, starting clean shaven on the 1st of November. Friends, family and workmates sponsor their mo growing by donating to Movember. Movember ends with moustache themed Movember Gala Parté’s all around the world! And the crowning of the ‘Man of Movember’!
Last year more than 173 000 ‘Mo Bro’s and Sistas’ around the globe helped raise more than £14 million for men’s health partners globally through ‘Movember’, as well as directly bringing more awareness to men’s health issues.
This year looks like being even bigger, and the time to jump on board is now!

Get involved
‘Krango & Charlie – Being a bad-ass cop!’ had its official launch in London back in June of this year. Attended by the stars themselves, the launch was a great success, and many a beer were consumed (man those kiwis can drink!!).
If you missed out on the launch, don’t despair! You still have a chance to participate with Krango & Charlie in a good cause!
Gustavfriends has formed a Movember team in the UK – feel free to join us in the quest to grow some mighty fine Krango and Charlie style ‘mo’s, and raise some money for a good cause!

David Krangel, (a.k.a. : Krango from Krango and Charlie) is also the founder of The Fix UK – sports event management specialists for events including Fun Run’s, Triathlons, Corporate Sports Days and even Pantomime horse racing!

Krango will be there. Charlie will be there. And we, Gustavfriends, will be there filming the event!! Filming duties will keep us from running, but we will be cheering you all on! And we will be all ‘Mo’ed’ up!
