Several members of Luton Rugby Club have been affected by Prostate Cancer

therefore the club wishes to play it’s part in raising awareness and saving lives.

Why a 7 Mile Walk?
1 in 7 white men will be affected by Prostate Cancer, for black men this rises to 1 in 4.
Therefore we are walking 7 miles to highlight just how prevalent Prostate Cancer is. Along the way we will raise awareness, raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK, enjoy a great social day including pre match lunch and cheer our 1st XV to victory.

Route
The walk will start from The Chequers Pub in Streatley, Bedfordshire at 10am and will end 7 miles later at Luton Rugby Club around 12:30. The route can be accessed here
If 7 miles is a bit far, you can join as we pass the 4 mile marker at Wardown Park around 11:15am or the 6 mile marker on Farley Hill around Midday.

Non Walkers
If you are unable to walk for any reason but are willing to offer your services to assist please contact Linda Butten

Transport
For those wishing to leave their car at Luton Rugby Club (or not use a car at all!), Richard Lush has kindly offered to put on a coach to transport walkers to the start. If you would like to make use of this, please contact Linda Butten
as seats are limited to the first 59. The coach will leave Luton Rugby Club at 9:15am.

Pre Match Lunch
All walkers (other than players!) are encouraged to attend the pre match lunch after completing the walk, showers will be available.

Matchday Lunch is 3 Courses including wine at £25 which includes entrance to watch Luton play Market Harborough, with both clubs challenging for promotion this should be a great game.

Awareness Branding
In order to achieve our primary objective it is essential that all walkers wear Prostate Cancer T Shirts over their outer garments. All sponsored walkers will be given a T-Shirt, Lapel Badge and socks.
