People are so generous

Sunday 20th Apr 2025

I've always been reluctant to ask for money, for any reason. But this fundraiser is different. It would be hard to find anyone untouched by prostate issues affecting men in their circle of contacts, or mens' mental health issues for that matter . Most of us know soneone who has taken their life, or tried to. Or both.

My embrarassment at asking for money looks pretty insignificant when we look around us at the journey many men in our circle of contacts are on, and so reluctant to ask for help. 

This DGR initiative is so successful because it provides a light hearted platform for making potentially a huge difference in the lives of those who largely suffer in silence.

Thanks so much to those who have contributed funds that will help with prostate cancer research and men's mental health issues. Much appreciated!

I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride

Tuesday 25th Mar 2025 On Sunday the 18th of May 2025, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.
