Virgin London Marathon 2016 · 24 April 2016 ·

Over 58,000 people will be diagnosed with prostate, testicular or penile cancer every year in the UK. Orchid exists to save lives from testicular, prostate and penile cancers through a range of support services, pioneering research and promoting awareness.

Story

As most of you will know I suffered from testicular cancer a few years ago. I was blown away by the standard of care that I received and the remarkable way that all the staff involved (the administrative staff, the nurses and doctors)  in process treated me and supported me through my illness and how well they still look after me during my monitoring. I was very lucky to receive such amazing care and to be looked after so well, it is due to charities like Orchid that this level of care is possible. Orchid are doing an amazing job raising awareness, donating to research and  offering a huge amount of support to men suffering from cancer. I am very pleased to be part of the Orchid team for the 2016 London Marathon as it gives me the opportunity to run for a cause that I feel so strongly about.
