Story

Prostate Cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK, killing one man every 45 minutes in the UK. That's the same time it takes to play three holes of golf.That's why I'm golfing the distance and taking on The Big Golf Race on Monday 5th July 2021 (rearranged from Friday 18th June 2021 due to the bad weather forecast), to keep men in the game for longer. The money raised by this challenge will help fund research into life-saving treatments for prostate cancer and provide practical support to men and their families.

In the past year I have been under a urology consultant for my prostate.  Whilst I have been given the all clear as far as cancer is concerned, others have not been so fortunate.  

This 14-16 hour challenge is my opportunity to give a little back for the treatment I have and continue to receive and support others who are or will have to follow the same path.  Hopefully, the funds raised will help Prostate Cancer UK find ways to beat prostate cancer so that no one has to walk the path at all in the not too distant future. 🤞🏼🙏
