Help Us Fight Prostate Cancer

Fundraising for the Prostate Project

We’re delighted that you are interested in becoming involved and wanting to support us, either by fundraising, participating in events or raising awareness of prostate cancer.  Your amazing efforts really will help us to make sure that men are given a better chance of beating cancer. There are all sorts of events available for you to participate in – take a look at our events to find out details of how to join in or to get some inspiration.  There are physical challenges like runs, marathons, golf days and cycle races, or social events such as concerts and open gardens.  Or you may want to get cooking and host a bake sale.  You may want to do your own thing to raise money for us, be it climbing in a bath of beans, shaving your head or growing a moustache, holding a quiz night or climbing Everest!

Do get in touch with us if you have any questions or if we can help you in any way. We have sponsorship forms, Prostate Project t-shirts, pin badges, balloons, collecting tins. Any funds you raise will help us to support the ground breaking research being undertaken by our team at the University of Surrey and help us to provide equipment, specialist nursing staff and an active support group. We rely on fundraisers for 99% of our support so you really are very important.  We pride ourselves in being run largely by volunteers and keeping our admin costs below 5%.

Online Fundraising – Tips for Success 
  • Set Up a Giving Page: Using an online page makes it easier for people to donate, with options to share on social media, add stories, and update supporters.
  • Link Activity Trackers: Link your Strava or Fitbit to your page to show your training, which can help increase donations.
  • Be the First Donor: Donating to your own page makes you twice as likely to hit your target.
  • Use Social Media: Share your story and update your page frequently for last-minute donations
