24 Hour Canoe Challenge · 5 March 2011

Everyman is an appeal run by The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR). Every year some 10,000 men lose their lives to prostate cancer and over 2,000 others have their world turned upside down by a diagnosis of testicular cancer. These men are the reason we are fundraising for male specific cancers.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. By donating you help fund important research into testicular and prostate cancer,currently these cancers kill one man every hour in the UK. The charity Everyman is providing&nbsp;awareness&nbsp;to the public as well as funding this vital research.</p> <p>In an effort to try and raise more money we are embarking on a 24hour canoe challenge. We intend to paddle from Alston, which lies on the banks of the River South Tyne, all the way to Tynemouth and the North Sea.</p> <p>The distance is 64.3miles and will cover grade 2/3 water as well as man-made wears. We would really&nbsp;appreciate&nbsp;your help and support in this challenge and what better way to do this then by donating to help the continued research. If you would like more information on Everyman then click this link to go to their&nbsp;web page:&nbsp;<a href="http://www.everyman-campaign.org/">http://www.everyman-campaign.org/</a></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.

Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
