Story
My name is Col, I’m 65, and I’ve been living with prostate cancer for over a decade.
After years of relative stability, my cancer recently returned. Instead of hiding away, I decided to do something bold: strip away the stigma and bare all to raise awareness, spark conversation, and fund vital research.
With the incredible support of photographer Sue Vaughton, we’ve created Revealing The Naked Truth — an artistic nude campaign designed to break the silence around prostate cancer and inspire other men to join me.
Why? Because this disease is stealing too many lives.
________________________________________
The Hard Truths:
• Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed cancer for men in the UK.
• One man dies every 45 minutes. That’s 11,500 men every year.
• Research and awareness for prostate cancer are still decades behind breast cancer.
These statistics aren’t just numbers. They represent fathers, brothers, partners, sons and friends. They represent families torn apart.

Revealing The Naked Truth Campaign:
I’ve bared all to launch a movement... but this campaign isn’t just about me. It’s about all of us.
Together, we can:
- Raise vital funds for Prostate Cancer Research to accelerate lifesaving treatments.
- Break the taboo and get men talking about their health.
- Inspire others to join the #NakedTruth challenge and show solidarity.
Your donations will go directly to Prostate Cancer Research, an organisation dedicated to creating brand new treatments and a future where no one dies from prostate cancer.
Oliver Kemp, CEO of Prostate Cancer Research says “It is great to see Col organising an in-aid of fundraising event for Prostate Cancer Research. His bold #Revealing the Naked Truth challenge is a great way to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer”

My Promise:
This campaign is about vulnerability, courage, and action. I’ve stood naked for this cause, because I believe it’s time we stopped losing so many men in silence.
Will you stand with me?

Col
