GNR Solo – November Accumulator Challenge

We’ve got a brand new challenge that really takes the biscuit. It’s a chance to unleash your inner star runner & earn yourself a guilt free treat every Tuesday night.

The challenge is to complete a baker’s dozen of runs (13 or more) of any distance in November – you can run at any pace and distance comfortable for you. If you complete 13 runs by 30 November, you will receive a mouthwateringly awesome medal.

The icing on the cake is an optional distance challenge. Depending how far you run over your 13 (or more) runs, you will be awarded with a bespoke digital finishers certificate to download and share:
• Flour power – 40 Miles
• Piece of cake – 75 miles
• The winner bakes all – 125 miles

The challenge starts on 1 November and costs £15 to join. Your challenge joining fee includes a unique finishers medal, training plans & tips, and access to an online run tracking tool. You can join anytime from now up to Monday 9 November at 10am, when entries close.

This challenge has all the ingredients you need to be your greatest in November… but have you got the recipe for success?

The Naked Rugby Players Do It Again

We are very excited to announce that the brilliant Naked Rugby Players have decided to do a 2021 calender raising funds and awareness of male cancer.

They are brilliant. This year because of the pandemic they are using previously unseen pictures!

There are several options so check out the offers below.

2020, What was all that about? It’s been a crazy old year all over the World and back here in the UK with national and local lockdowns. Sadly it has been impossible for The Naked Rugby Players team to get clubs together for a 2021 Calendar. However, we felt the need to pull something together so we can continue to support Inclusive Rugby and Balls To Cancer even more so during these difficult times. So, we’ve trawled through the thousands of pictures taken over the past 3 years and from 15 teams and hundreds of players to bring you The Naked Rugby Players 2021 – Unseen Bits!

We Answer The Call

A few weeks ago we were tagged in a post regarding Paul. Paul had been given devastating news in regard to his cancer fight and wanted to complete a few things in a bucket list.

The main one being to fly in a spitfire at Duxford. We didn’t know if we could pull it off but with a bit of hard work and the lovely Imperial War Museum Duxford, today it happened!

The family have just shared these pictures for you to see and hopefully get some official ones too.

We are honored to of made a dream come true as part of our #MakingMemoriesDreamDays campaign

New Private Support Group

We have created a brand new, private support group on Facebook

. This is where anyone with cancer can join and openly discuss their experiences, their fears, or just chat with others that fully understand.

If you have cancer and are looking for help or support, or if you are a survivor who can help others through their fight. then please ask to join.

Lets work together to get through this. You can find the group here

Urgent Help Call

A few days ago we got a call from a young cancer fighter who was desperate as his fridge that he used to store his medication in had broken and he had no way of replacing it.

So the very next day we had purchased and had delivered a brand new fridge freezer supplied and delivered by our friends (BTC Ladies away kit sponsor) at Davies Domestic Appliances

In addition we gave him a Morrisons £50 voucher to replace his food.

People don’t understand to financial burden that cancer can also bring. This is why we will always be there to help people like this young man who really needed our help.

Amazon Joins Our Fight

We are very happy to announce that Amazon have added us to their Smile account system. This allows you our supporters to buy from Amazon as usual but they will make a donation to our charity for every purchase!

It costs you nothing extra but you do need to shop though their Smile website here so please before you buy think about using Smile and help us raise money without costing you a penny.

Thank you
