Academy staff start daily challenge for Prostate Cancer UK

Staff from across the Academy, including Travis Binnion, Paul McShane and Tom Huddlestone, will be running (either 3k, 5k or 10k) or cycling (10k, 15k or 25k) for 30 consecutive days!

‘Prostate United’, a month-long fundraising effort, has seen hundreds of football club staff run or cycle throughout November every year since 2018. The goal? To raise funds in the fight against a disease that kills one man every 45 minutes.

Since its inception as a two-man challenge four years ago, Prostate United has branched out into the sporting landscape, with participants running or cycling at clubs across the English football pyramid, Scotland and the USA – as well as rugby league and ice hockey club staff – raising more than £280,000 for Prostate Cancer UK.
