Organise a darts marathon for Prostate Cancer UK
Throw 12 or 24 hours of darts and help save men's lives, one checkout at a time.
Turn darts into donations and help save men's lives
Whether you're a laid-back pub thrower or a club pro, your darts can help support the 1 in 8 men diagnosed with prostate cancer in the UK. Right now, it's the only major cancer without a screening programme, meaning too many men are diagnosed too late. Your fundraising can help us change that. Game on.
Tips to get you started
- Choose your venue - whether it's your local pub or darts club, or just your front room, find a venue to throw your spears.
- Choose your timeframe - how long will you throw for? 12 or 24 hours? Why not split a 24-hour challenge across two 12-hour days?
- Spice up the format - shake things up and choose something to aim for; 100,000 points? Legs of 5,001? It's up to you!
