Story
This didn't start out as a charity walk, however so many people
asked if we were doing it for a cause that it seemed silly not to try and raise
some money and awareness. The choice of charity was easy as my Dad had recently
been treated for Prostate Cancer.
The full story of our "Not a charity walk" can be found here and here but more importantly though, I’d like to make some suggestions that might help improve, or even save a life.
- If you have an older fella in your life, check if he’s seen a doctor recently for a general check-up and remind him that he can ask his GP for more information on prostate cancer.
- Have a look at prostatecanceruk.org, follow them on social media (Twitter or Facebook) and see if you can educate yourself and others about this mostly hidden disease.
- Finally, if you can, please consider donating to Prostate Cancer UK to help them support men with this form of cancer and fund research into better diagnosis and treatment. You can do this on my Just Giving page or you can give on their website directly. Don’t forget to allow Gift Aid which will make your donation worth 25% more.
I will be closing this page at the end of this month. After that, you can give on the Prostate Cancer UK’s website or maybe even consider raising money yourself by getting involved in an event such as Movember.
If you’ve already donated, or looked at the links above with the view to informing yourself or others about Prostate Cancer, then thank you so much. I hope that the progress made today (thanks to you) can really improve the lives of those who find themselves diagnosed with it in the future.
