- Pin badges and wristbands to wear with pride during your performances, so everyone knows that you’re singing to support men affected by prostate cancer.
- Awareness leaflets and posters to hand out to choir members and audiences at events. Empowering more men to check their risk of prostate cancer and start lifesaving conversations with their GP.
- Ongoing support and guidance from our dedicated team on ways to fundraise and maximise your impact.
Not part of a choir?
No problem – get a group of friends together or people from your local community and sing. It’s a great way to socialise and meet new people.
There are loads of ways you can support us through singing and music:
- Karaoke night at your local pub
- Singing in a supermarket or local station
- Singing in your workplace or at school
- Get your old band back together for a gig
