Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal – Lakeland Adventure

Hi all,

Apologies if this has already been posted but I don’t think it has. On Thursday 16th May over 30 cyclists, most of them fellow Clarets, will be taking part in the Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal – Lakeland Adventure. The challenge is to ride 200 miles in three days, starting and finishing at Turf Moor and including a loop around the Lake district in between. The riders are collectively aiming to raise a total of £10,000!

As I’m sure you already know the Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal is dedicated to raising awareness of the disease and saving lives. Offering prostate cancer testing at venues throughout the UK, the mission is to check as many men as we can through a blood PSA test.

The company I work for, Senior Aerospace Westons, recently held a testing day where a total of 130 men, 70 employees and 60 men from the local community were tested. 9 men were advised to seek further testing, potentially saving their lives.

Please give as generously as you can on the link attached.

Thanks in advance,

Jay and the 30 other riders!

Jake. My wife and I will definitely make donation towards a for a very worthwhile cause. Just out of interest can those cycling shirts be purchased either with or without the advertising. I’m sure there'll be several clarets interested in purchasing one. Good luck with the ride.
