A Truro building supplies store is raising awareness about men’s health with a curry night.
RGB Building Supplies, based in Threemilestone Industrial Estate, is hosting the event as part of its "The Best Mate Curry Date" initiative, supporting the Movember movement.
The evening aims to highlight the issue of suicide rates within the construction industry, which are among the highest of any UK sector.
Running between November 4 and 23, anyone spending more than £100 at the store will receive a scratch card.
If they reveal three matching chillies, they will win a ticket for themselves and a friend to attend the curry evening.
Anyone visiting the branch during the campaign can also donate to the Movember cause and receive a novelty stick-on moustache.
Staff members who excel in fundraising will be crowned "Curry King/Queen" and attend the evening.
Branch manager Luke Robins said: "Spending time with friends is essential, and we want to offer members of our community the chance to have a 'mo-ment' on us by downing tools, enjoying great food, connecting with their mates and focusing on their wellbeing.
"At the heart of this campaign is a message of solidarity and support for the health and wellbeing of our visitors and staff in our predominantly male-driven industry.
"With construction workers being at such a high risk for mental health issues, we hope to spark meaningful conversations.
"We’re proud to stand behind this cause and do our part in promoting a healthy work-life balance."
