favour of the charity.

skinny skin-on fries, with the option of adding one of their special
house brews.

men’s health’ by encouraging men to wear a mo in the month of
November to show support for the movement. Since 2003, the
Movember Foundation has committed to fighting men’s diseases
and has founded more than 1,200 men’s health projects around the
world.
Stock burger is situated in the Holiday Inn Hotel in Brighton, which
is operated by Kew Green Group Ltd, who explicitly support the
Movember movement and initiative of Stock Burger Co.

Direction commented, “we are delighted that the team at Stock
Burger are encouraging their customers to take part in Movember,
it’s a really fun initiative and we know the money we raise is going to
a fantastic cause.”
