Hackney Half 2025
Campaign by Orchid Cancer (RCN 1080540)
#TeamOrchid takes on the Hackney Half Marathon 2025 to fight male cancer.

Story

In less than eight weeks, I’ll be dragging myself (mostly willingly) through 13.1 miles of the Hackney Half Marathon to raise money for men’s cancer, to be specific - testicular, penile, and prostate.

Why? Because these cancers don’t get talked about enough, and too many men suffer in silence. Early detection saves lives, and raising awareness can make all the difference.

I’m sure you all know someone with testicles (or at least, you’ve met a few in your time)! So let’s do something to protect them.

I’d be so grateful for any donation, big or small. If you can’t donate, please share this page and remind the men in your life to check their bits. Together, we can make a real impact, one awkward conversation at a time!

Thank you! ❤️

A little bit about Orchid -

Over 58,000 people will be diagnosed with prostate, testicular or penile cancer every year in the UK.

Thank you so much for making a donation to Orchid. As a small charity, your support means a great deal to us.
