Jeff Stelling on the march for cancer charity

His 400 mile mission takes Jeff from St James’ Park, home of Exeter City to St James’ Park home of Newcastle United.

Stelling said: “I’m grateful to the people of Blackburn, Preston and Blackpool who came out to support me today as we raise vital awareness and funds for Prostate Cancer UK.

“So starting down at Blackburn Rovers, via Preston North End and ending at Blackpool FC and then on to Morecambe we are heading north relentlessly and ending in St James’ Park, Newcastle one of the great football grounds, where I know we will get a fantastic welcome from all Geordies.” Prostate Cancer UK Chief Executive Angela Culhane, who has so far completed two days of the March this year, said: “After his heroic efforts last year, which raised a huge amount of awareness not to mention vital funds in the fight against this deadly disease, I’m proud and delighted Jeff Stelling is embarking on his second March for Men for Prostate Cancer UK.

More than 5,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year in the North West and the money raised will have a huge impact on the lives of those affected by the disease and will help bring us one step closer to stopping prostate cancer being a killer.
