Hello there!!

I will be running 5K as part of the Women's Hydro Active Challenge on Sunday 16 September at Hyde Park in London.  I will be running to raise money for Prostate Matters International.  The primary aim of this charity is to raise funds for research into prostate diseases and for potential cures.

Approximately 2.5million men in the UK suffer from diseases of the prostate, which include Prostate Cancer, Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) and Prostatitis.  Depending on the condition with which they are diagnosed, sufferers may experience problems with urination, sexual dysfunction and a reduced quality of life.

Prostate Cancer, which accounts for 10,000 deaths in the UK per year, is now the most common form of cancer in men.  Each year about 30,000 men in the UK are diagnosed with Prostate Cancer.

There is an urgent need for significant advances in more accurate diagnosis to enable doctors to tailor the most appropriate treatments to individual patients as well as develop new treatments.

I would like to thank you for visiting my fundraising page and hope that having read a little about PMI that you will dig deep and sponsor me to help reach my target for this worthy charity.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Prostate Matters International will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support and have a good day!! :o)
