My Charity - Prostate UK

I am running the London Marathon to raise money for Prostate UK.

Prostate UK is a charity that deals with raising awareness of all diseases that affect the Prostate. I am particularly keen to raise awareness of Prostate Cancer. It is the third most common cancer in the UK affects 35000 men – of this number 10000 cases will be fatal (cancer research UK). Prostate UK works to raise awareness of both the public and GPs of all diseases of the prostate to encourage screening which will assist to make early diagnosis which is the most effective weapon against cancer.

Male cancers do not get the publicity other cancers do, and prostate cancer is the second biggest killer of all cancers in the UK.

I am honoured that Prostate UK have asked me to run for them.
