The Big Golf Race 2023
Campaign by PROSTATE CANCER UK (RCN 1005541 and in Scotland (SC039332))
There's something for everyone in The Big Golf Race. Choose from the Half Marathon (2 rounds, 36 holes, 13 miles in a day), the Marathon (4 rounds, 72 holes, 26 miles in a day) or even the Ultra Marathon (5.5 rounds, 100 holes, 35 miles in a day).

Story

Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men in the UK. That's thousands of Dads, Brothers, Partners, Grandads, Mates, Sons, Uncles and Friends!

Working in UK development and as a golfer, the majority of my social network are men. The chances of me knowing someone this will/does and has affected are high, I want to actively make a difference.

I'm taking on The Big Golf Race to help raise money and awareness of prostate cancer to keep men in the game for longer. 

We plan to tee off at dawn on June 21st. This will be a huge test for me, having only recently taken up golf and I couldn't do it without my amazing fiancé, Michael, our fantastic friend and captain, Rob who has rallied us together and will provide not only moral support on the day but a raft of laughs and our brilliant teammates Pete & Colin. 

Your donation will help fund lifesaving research to find better tests to diagnose men sooner. 

Thank you for your support.
