Prostate cancer is a fight my family has been fighting since 2010 when my dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Luckily in 2015 he got the all clear from the consultants that he had won the battle against this awful disease. 

I’m taking part in Football to Amsterdam, a two day, 145-mile bike ride to the Dutch capital. We’ll be putting football rivalries aside to tackle prostate cancer once and for all. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. It’s a disease which kills one man every 45 minutes – that’s two men during a football match. But Prostate Cancer UK know that we can turn it around. Their aim is to make this a disease the next generation need not fear.
