This Year's Charity Mooch-fest

[PsYcHe]

Guys,

I appreciate that times are tough at the minute for all of us, but I'm after your money again

Myself and the other member of The Hairy Test Cycles are doing the Étape Caledonia on Sunday. For those who don't know, it's an 81-mile slog around the Tummel Valley, starting and finishing at Pitlochry with a wee jaunt up the side of Schiehallion (or however the hell you spell it). Hoping to finish somewhere between 5 and 5&1/2 hours total time.

This time, we're supporting Prostate Cancer UK who are a much under-funded cause given then number of guys who are affected by this.. and just to help out, here are some stats..

Across the UK

• Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men.
• Every hour one man dies from prostate cancer - that's more than 10,000 every year.
• Over 40,000* men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year - that's more than 100* men diagnosed every day.
• It's estimated that by 2030, prostate cancer will be the most common cancer.
• One in eight men will get prostate cancer.
• Over a quarter of a million* men are living with and after prostate cancer.
• Two out of three adults don't know what the prostate gland does.

In Scotland

• Nearly 3,000* men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year in Scotland.
• More than 700* men die every year from prostate cancer in Scotland.
