Prostate Cancer UK has a simple ambition - to stop men dying from prostate cancer. Through shifting the science over the next 10 years to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and support, we will stop prostate cancer being a killer.

Story

Jerry's running [again] for The Prostate Cancer Charity in The 1st Eden Project 1/2 Marathon on sunday October 11th

!!! T H A N K Y O U !!!    You helped raise over £400 so far from The Great North Run . . . and now I just  . . 'keep on running' . . . 

Thanks for taking the time to visit this page . . . . it's very simple - my very good friend Chris Pittman lost his battle with Prostate Cancer in June 2008 - he was 53 - too young!

He was still around to witness me take part in The 2008 London Marathon - now I keep the flag flying by running in other events to raise money for The Prostate Cancer Charity in the hope that it might do something to improve the chances for future generations . . . it also helps in some small way to keep his presence alive.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now :-)  You can donate right up until December the 20th - so pass the word to anyone else who might be willing to help ;-)
