NON-LEAGUE clubs and fans can help Prostate Cancer UK hit the magical £1m milestone this season – and an exclusive specially-designed football shirt is up for grabs as an incentive.
Former England star Viv Anderson lent his support to the nationwide fundraising initiative at a launch event in Manchester on Wednesday to highlight the lofty ambition of Prostate United this season.
Since its launch in 2018, over 60 football clubs – both professional and Non-League – hundreds of club staff and fans have walked, run or cycled every day during the month of October to save men’s lives.
This year, those taking part can get their hands on an exclusive money-can’t-buy shirt by raising £500 for the charity.
The striking Prostate United shirt comes from the imagination of renowned designer Ed Cowburn from Acid FC. He has previously designed kits for Leeds United in 2023-24 as well as an award-winning offering for Walthamstow FC.
Paying homage to the early 90s, the pixel patterned shirt, with a checkerboard effect, features the blue, black and white charity brand colours. The number 45 on the front represents the one man that dies every 45 minutes from prostate cancer in the UK.
