The Big Golf Race

This year we’re taking on The Big Golf Race to raise money for Prostate Cancer UK and we’d love your support.

What is The Big Golf Race?

This is no ordinary day on the course – it’s a challenge where every hole we play helps drive lifesaving research. We’ll be pushing ourselves to complete 72 holes in just one day.

Why does it matter?

cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK, affecting 1 in 8 men and claiming over 12,000 lives each year. It exists in every golf club, sporting facility and families lives. Yet there is still no routine screening programme – meaning many men are diagnosed too late for effective treatment.

We’re fundraising to help drive research and raise awareness so that more men get the chance for early detection and a cure.We completed the challenge a couple of years ago for MacMillan Cancer Support and although we did complete in one day, it took the 4 of us 16 hours, starting at 0545 and finishing at 2050, gave us lots of blisters on hands and feet and shattered us all for a few days, it gave us a sensational feeling of joy that we raised over £1500 for the charity and with your help, we want to try and smash that amount for such a great cause.

The Big Golf Race is due to be played at Stafford Castle Golf and Leisure and help drive change for men everywhere.
