Birchwood 10k charity

Birchwood 10k nominated charity

Out nominated charity this year is Prostate Cancer UK.

Prostate Cancer UK

Prostate Cancer UK is proud to be the beneficiary charity of the 2013 Birchwood 10k and is looking forward to raising awareness and funds to fight prostate cancer.

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK.  Every year in the UK 40,000 men are diagnosed with the disease and 250,000 men are living with it.

We are the leading UK charity for men with prostate cancer and prostate problems.  We fight to help more men survive prostate cancer and enjoy a better quality of life.

We have 3 priorities:

  1. Supporting men and providing information
  2. Finding answers by funding research
  3. Leading change to raise awareness and improve care

How can I get involved?

You can help!  Join our 10,000 Challenge and raise £100 for our work.

10,000 men die every year from prostate cancer.  We are asking you to raise £100 which is 10,000 pennies to help change this stat.

Run in the Birchwood 10k on behalf of Prostate Cancer and we will send you our fundraising pack and one of our running tops.
