It is a sad fact that 30,000 men are diagnosed every year in this country with prostate cancer and over 10,000 die from the disease, equal to the number of deaths in women from breast cancer. But prostate cancer research receives only 25% of the funding spent on research into breast cancer in women. There is a diagnostic test available to screen for prostate cancer but currently only 8% of men request this potentially life-saving test.
To help raise much needed funds for equipment and prostate cancer treatment, Rotary in Bristol are organising an annual sponsored walk, jog or run for the whole family around Bristol Downs. The third Run for the Future will take place on Sunday 7th September 2008. To register, email us and we'll alert you when registration for Run for the Future begins.
