Bullseye!

We are celebrating major milestones at Clean up Prostate Cancer and it feels soooo good.


100 bags of litter collected - tick 103 total inc 2 more from Conor

100 Know your Prostate leaflets given out - tick 106 total inc 3 yesterday

Prostate Cancer UK 10000 Challenge completed - tick 10074yds total


All of this has been achieved since last June and has been a real team effort. So thank you very much to all contributors.


The primary inspiration for the project is to raise awareness of Prostate Cancer and the knowledge that at least 106 men have been given access to good information about the disease is very satisfying. So far, I do not know if anyone has acted on that information nor that anyone has been diagnosed as a consequence. For me it does not matter. The important fact is more men now know about the risk of Prostate Cancer and that early action can really make a difference.

Then Clean up Prostate Cancer has also done its bit to help improve our World. Sounds odd but there is something very fulfilling in filling a bag with rubbish. I think people, quite rightly, don't pay attention to a clean space but they do notice one that is marred by rubbish. We've been doing our best helping to make the view the only thing you notice. 100 bags of rubbish is just the beginning.
