Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are aiming to raise awareness and support for prostate cancer, a common cancer in the UK with 48,600 men diagnosed each year (1in8).

Unlike other cancers, prostate cancer wont give you symptoms in its crucial early stages when its easier to treat, making it harder to give out tell tale signs to look out for.

That's why we want to do everything we can to make every man aware of their risk of getting the disease and empower them to think about their testing options so that they have the best chance of getting that all important early diagnosis.

the earlier you find prostate cancer, the easier it is to treat.

As a team, on the 27th september 2025, we are taking on the challenge of driving a banger of a car costing no more than £750 from St Austel, cornwall to Monopoli, Italy (and back...) although the biggest challenge we will face will be to keep our chosen wreck running, we will also be taking part in daily challenges and tasks to earn more for our cause. The challenge will take place over 6 days, camping each night in an unknown location, only to be discovered 12hours beforehand.

ALL Money raised here goes straight to the charity as we are funding all of the expenses to carry out the challenge ourselves. Please help us with supporting this amazing charity by donating as much or as little as you can, every little helps.
