Prostate Cancer UK has a simple ambition - to stop men dying from prostate cancer. Through shifting the science over the next 10 years to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and support, we will stop prostate cancer being a killer.

Story

The Orwellermen Sea Shanty Crew are gearing up for an extraordinary adventure—cycling around 450 miles from their home on the banks of the River Orwell on England’s East Coast to perform at the 2025 Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival. But this isn't just any ride; it’s a journey filled with song and purpose. Along the way, we’ll be stopping at pubs and cafés across southern England, spreading the joy of sea shanties to the landlocked masses while raising funds for Prostate Cancer UK.

Our skipper Gareth was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2022. He had a prostatectomy in 2023 and is now in remission.

Prostate Cancer UK's top priority is funding research to stop prostate cancer killing men. They are investing millions to find better treatments and better tests that can spot fast-growing cancers early, and could be used in a screening programme to save thousands of lives.

We are pleased to be able to support this charity and all your donations will for to the charity.

Thank you.
