Michael’s Meridian Meander

I’m taking part in a cycle challenge. Named as the Meridian Meander, to raise money for Prostate Cancer UK. The plan is to follow a route roughly along the Meridian line from Louth to Greenwich. 158 miles over 3 days starting on the 27th of July.

The reason I’m raising money for Prostate Cancer UK is close to my heart.

My brother Brian died of Prostate Cancer as he ignored his symptoms. I myself had no symptoms. I got checked when Brian died “ all clear”. A year later, I don’t know why, but I got checked again and straight into treatment. I ended up having High Dose Brackytherapy treatment & 3 weeks of radiotherapy during lockdown ! Thank you NHS and I would just like to give something back.

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
