Each year about 250,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer. They are someone's grandfather, father, brother, or son.
Whilst prostate cancer is treatable in the prostate, once it spreads to other parts of the body, it becomes incurable and life-limiting. Our aim is simple: to fund the ground-breaking research that will stop lives being needlessly lost to advanced disease. By running for #TeamPCR you are giving these men and their families a better future.
Join Team PCR, whether with a charity place or your own place, and receive these great perks:

Your fundraising helps us to support our research and ultimately transform lives. We could not continue to fund our research without you, and without our research we cannot achieve better outcomes for men with prostate cancer and their families.
We currently fund thirteen research projects, all of which aim to develop more effective treatments for and better understandings of prostate cancer. We are fundraising for a US Ecosystem Report which will help us to fund projects that explore current gaps in knowledge and treatment to move the field forward and reach new and better treatments sooner.
