One of our volunteers, Roy Cameron, is undertaking a 5K run in Inverness next March. Raising funds and awareness for Prostate Cancer.

If you wish to donate to Roy's fundraising, please click on the link below.

This is Roy's reasons behind signing up for the run;

"In July 2025, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer and from that point I started my treatment journey. This consisted of 20 slots of radiotherapy, 5 days a week including Christmas and New Year. I’ll not lie; this was not an easy time.
All of the medical team, I have had the experience of meeting, have been such great support and explained everything to me in simple terms to help me deal with what was coming up.
With this in mind, I wanted to give something back to help others that may be in my situation. I am running the 5k, next March, and would be extremely grateful if you could support me in fundraising. All donations go to help the research for prostate cancer which is developing at a fast rate.
And on a final note, to all you men out there, if you are in any doubt, go get yourself checked out. One check is better than no check!!!"
