There are lots of different ways to organise or take part in a fundraising activity in aid of our work this year. We’d be delighted to have your help!
Join us in our Prost80 Initiative for virtual fundraising
However you choose to support us, we’d be delighted if you would like to undertake a fundraising activity in 2021.
You may already have a challenge in mind:
- Walking, running or cycling challenges
- Being part of a organised event – virtual or live
- Fitness challenges closer to home
- Virtual social activities
And here are just a few examples of brilliant fundraising ideas in 2020:
- The Rolling Hills Chorus held a fundraising Quiz via Zoom
- Bryan, Suzanne and Amelia performed a concert via Facebook Live
- Colleagues from Rail Systems Alliance Scotland grew moustaches to raise funds and awareness of prostate cancer
- David cycled 900 miles over 3 months around Edinburgh

Taking part in a organised active event
Several active events such as the Great North Run, Men’s 10K and Great Scottish Run are currently planned to take place later this year. And new for this year, the Women’s 10K Edinburgh takes place in October. Some events have been adapted to exciting virtual challenges suitable for all abilities, including the Edinburgh Marathon Festival. Please refer to each event for details.

Other easy ways to support Prostate Scotland
We realise that the current situation has made life difficult for many people and families. We understand if this is not a time that you can support us financially. There are many ways that you can still support us non financially, including generating free donations when you shop online.
The key requirement for all fundraising
…is that you must stay safe and follow up-to-date Scottish Government and NHS guidelines, on staying safe and on social distancing. We are here to support you in your fundraising – you can contact our Supporter Care team here, at info@prostatescotland.org.uk or on 0131 603 8664 or 0131 603 8660.
