Story

Sign up and Grow a Tash !

The covid-19 pandemic has led to delays to cancer diagnosis with more than 55,000 cancer patients in England currently waiting for key tests, the emotional and practical support provided by less common cancer charities is needed now more than ever. We were also shocked to hear that during the height of the pandemic referrals for testicular cancer were down by more that 50%! This often results in men needing more treatment.

As the need for charity services increases, the donations that we depend on have decreased. Many fundraising events had been cancelled or postponed but with your help, Its in the Bag Cancer Support can continue to support men and their families affected by testicular cancer and also continue to raise awareness with the aim to save lives. So what do you need to do?

* Have a shave on Saturday 31st October

* Start to grow your hairy top lip

* Grow your wonderful tash for 30 days of November

* Spread the word and raise awareness

* Set up a your own JustGiving page or donate here.

About the charity

It's in the Bag

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1163735
It’s in the Bag is run by a group of survivors with support from specialist NHS staff and provide hands-on support for men with testicular cancer (germ cell) in the South-West. We have three simple aims: Support: Being diagnosed with testicular cancer and going through treatment is a huge challenge – physically, mentally and emotionally. We provide a range of activities and initiatives to help men through this tough time. Awareness: We teach men the importance of checking their balls regularly and taking any issues straight to their GP. Spreading this knowledge promotes earlier diagnosis, which often means simpler, more effective treatment and better chances of a cure. Survival: With UK cure rates for testicular cancer running above 98%, we focus on survival helping guys tackle the emotional and practical impact of cancer, both during treatment and into their lives after.
