IT'S IN THE TASH 2022
Campaign by It's in the Bag (RCN 1163735)
It's in the Tash takes place during November, Mens Health Awareness Month. Why not Grow a Tash, raise money for It's in the Bag who support men with Testicular Cancer. SUPPORT - AWARENESS - SURVIVAL

Story

The covid-19 pandemic has led to delays to cancer diagnosis, with more than 55,000 cancer patients in England currently waiting for key tests, the emotional and practical support provided by less common cancer charities is needed now more than ever. We were also shocked to hear that during the height of the pandemic referrals for testicular cancer were down by more that 50%! This often results in men needing more treatment.

As the need for charity services increases, the donations that we depend on have decreased. Many fundraising events have been cancelled or postponed but with your help, Its in the Bag Cancer Support can continue to support men and their families affected by testicular cancer and also continue to raise awareness with the aim to save lives.

RULES:

All participants must attempt to grow a moustache and run 3k a day!

if you would like to get involved please speak to some one in the carpenters office.

About the charity

It's in the Bag

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1163735
It’s in the Bag is run by a group of survivors with support from specialist NHS staff and provide hands-on support for men with testicular cancer (germ cell) in the South-West. We have three simple aims: Support: Being diagnosed with testicular cancer and going through treatment is a huge challenge – physically, mentally and emotionally. We provide a range of activities and initiatives to help men through this tough time. Awareness: We teach men the importance of checking their balls regularly and taking any issues straight to their GP. Spreading this knowledge promotes earlier diagnosis, which often means simpler, more effective treatment and better chances of a cure. Survival: With UK cure rates for testicular cancer running above 98%, we focus on survival helping guys tackle the emotional and practical impact of cancer, both during treatment and into their lives after.
