I didn’t think prostate cancer would ever be something that felt close to home — until it was. Watching someone you love go through it changes everything. The appointments, the treatment, the worry… and the moments where you just feel completely helpless.

That’s where this started for me.

I wanted to do something — anything — that felt like I was fighting back in some small way. So I’ve decided to take on a challenge throughout the month of May: walking at least 1 mile every single day (and likely more). Each day will be dedicated to someone — whether that’s a loved one, someone currently fighting, someone we’ve lost, or families going through it right now. All funds raised will go directly to Orkney Prosate Awareness, and all their funds stay within Orkney to support those who are effected by the terrible illness.

This isn’t just about awareness. It’s about helping fund research, support services, and hopefully making things a little bit easier for someone else going through the same thing.

Every step I take is for the people we love — for strength, for hope, and for a future where fewer families have to go through this
