Richard Poulson of Morleys Stores to run marathon for charity

Morley Stores housewares buyer Richard Poulson will be running the Mont-Saint-Michel Marathon in France on Sunday May 26 to raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK which, he says, “is a charity close to my heart”.

Richard explained: “Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and currently kills one man every 45 minutes; 44,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer over the next 12 months and by 2030, prostate cancer is set to become the most common cancer in the UK. Therefore it’s imperative we raise both awareness and support for this disease.”

Richard has set up a page on the JustGiving website at https://www.justgiving.com/Richard-Poulson4?utm_source=Sharethis&utm_medium=fundraisingpage&utm_content=Richard-Poulson4&utm_campaign=pfp-email&utm_term=bMK5KA7wq for donations.

He added: “Your kind donations will be very much appreciated. JustGiving sends your money straight to Prostate Cancer UK so they can put your generosity to good use!”
