Do it for Dad

"When I was first told I had
prostate cancer by my doctor I
was obviously very shocked.
With the Charity's support I was
able to enjoy my life again."

Do it for Dad

For families affected by prostate cancer, Father's Day can be a particular reminder of the importance of the men in their lives. Although we raise awareness of prostate cancer throughout the year we hope Father's Day can inspire everyone to Do it for Dad and raise money to support the most common cancer in men.

There are several ways to Do it for Dad.

Why not hold a fundraising event?

Whatever you have in mind, we're here to support you to make your event a success. Here are some ideas to get you started:

  • Prise your dad away from his well-used set of tongs and hold a barbeque in his honour.

  • Organise a 'Dads vs Kids' 5 a side football, rugby, golf or cricket tournament for family and friends.

  • Take advantage of June's sporting events and organise a sweepstake for Wimbledon, Royal Ascot or the Epsom Derby.

  • Throw a 'Dress like your Dad' party and run a 'Dance like your Dad' competition.

  • Jump out of a plane from 10,000 feet - Find out more about our Skydiving Week 2011.
