London To Paris Bike Ride · 2 June 2010

Everyman is an appeal run by The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR). Every year some 10,000 men lose their lives to prostate cancer and over 2,000 others have their world turned upside down by a diagnosis of testicular cancer. These men are the reason we are fundraising for male specific cancers.

Story

Helen, Jo and Paul successfully completed the London to Paris cycle ride challenge on June 5th.

In 2009 our son Josh found out he had testicular cancer.  I'm delighted to report that after a course of chemotherapy and some surgery he's well again.

Jo and I wanted to do something to help in the fight against this particular cancer.  Josh's treatment went so well because of the unstinting work that people have done over recent decades.  We'd like that work to continue

Everyman is a charity dedicated to male cancers.

Everyman works to raise awareness and fund research into testicular and prostate cancer. Having set up Europe's first and only centre dedicated to research into male cancers, they need your help to continue this vital work.

"Help to cross out male cancer, by supporting the Everyman Campaign", and our bike ride.

Every penny you donate here will go to Everyman (the gift aid contributions more than covers the JustGiving admin.) because Jo, Helen and I have paid our own costs. 

Donate now through JustGiving.  It's simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.

Thank you!

Paul
