My story

Prostate cancer kills one man every 45 minutes – that's half a football match. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

This October, I’m joining Prostate United for the 5th-straight year by attempting to run 10km every day with my fellow football fans to help save men’s lives. It’s my 2nd year running 10km per day after running 5km per day previously. In total, I’ve already run over 900km for the challenge.

We’re raising money to find better tests and treatments to stop men from dying from prostate cancer – a disease that takes our dads, brothers, mates, and partners far too soon.

I lost my dad Glen Oxley to prostate cancer in 2019 and I’m running in his memory. He was diagnosed too late after suffering from back pain and despite the best efforts of wonderful people at Weston Park, Chesterfield Royal and others, he passed away at Ashgate Hospice aged just 64-years-old.

I’m also running for any Football Heaven listeners, their friends and families, who have been affected by the disease.

It’s a punishing challenge mentally, physically and logistically but it’s incredibly rewarding being part of a huge team across the county, raising money for a brilliant charity. Every donation is so important so anything you can give would be greatly appreciated, by so many people.
