We’re proud to share that one of our team members, Will Cheetham, recently took on an incredible challenge to raise money and awareness for prostate cancer.
On one of the hottest days of the year, he completed a remarkable 72 holes of golf in a single day, starting at 5:15am and not finishing until 7:50pm. During the challenge, he walked nearly 20 miles, clocked up around 39,000 steps, and raised an amazing £720 for charity.
The golf marathon was organised to support prostate cancer awareness and raise funds for a cause that affects so many people and their families. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, with around 1 in 8 men in the UK affected during their lifetime. More than 64,000 men are diagnosed every year, and approximately 540,000 people across the UK are currently living with or recovering from the disease.
As well as raising funds, the challenge was about encouraging conversations around a disease that often isn’t talked about enough. Every donation helps support vital research and services for those affected by prostate cancer.
The cause is particularly close to the team’s hearts. Having experienced the impact cancer can have on families, including the recent loss of a much-loved family member to bowel cancer, they wanted to do something positive that could help make a difference.
Completing four full rounds of golf in a single day was no easy task, especially in the heat, but it was all worthwhile in support of such an important cause. While the challenge left him tired and sore by the final hole. it was a reminder of the strength and resilience shown every day by those living with cancer and their loved ones.
We’d like to say a huge well done. Together, you’ve helped us raise both awareness and valuable funds in the fight against cancer.
An outstanding effort and a fantastic achievement for a very worthy cause.
