Story

2020 is definitely going to have one of the hardest challenges me & James have ever done! In February we are taking on the Iron Man 70.3 which is....1.9km swim, 90km bike ride and a half marathon to finish 😫 Absolutely petrified 😳

We have decided to raise money for the Prostate Cancer Research Centre. In 2019, James’ dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer and we’re very happy to say he beat it in the same year! But not everybody is so lucky and we were so shocked to find out that in the UK it’s the most common cancer in men and that in the 1 in 8 men will get it in their lifetime! So that’s why we want to support research into this horrible disease. 

Over 11,000 men die every year in the UK and the number increases every year. The Mission of PCRC is to develop new therapy for men with advanced prostate cancer. The immediate goal is to increase survival and their vision is a cure for the disease. Every pound raised will help PCRC achieve their vision.
