All,
As part of the TV stuff I'm doing we are promoting The Great Drag Race which is to be held on June 19th 2010 in London.
It would help us greatly if you could forward this information to as many people as possible, so that we can spread the word and make the race a success.
We are also looking for sponsers for the event. If you, or know of someone who may be, interested, please see the website for more details.
What is The Great Drag Race?
The Great Drag Race is a spectacular new annual event that aims to radically increase the public's awareness of prostate cancer. We hope to persuade a thousand men of all shapes and sizes to descend on London, where they will each walk or run for 10.2km wearing a wig and a frock in order to drag the issue into the spotlight. That's one long stride for each of the 10,200 men lost to the disease each year.
Why is this necessary?
Prostate cancer kills almost as many men as breast cancer kills women, and yet 70% of us don’t even know what the prostate is. That's a shocking statistic. Men are dying unnecessarily because they are unaware of the symptoms of prostate cancer, and because they are not aware of the risk factors involved. Experts agree that this is partly due to a lack of funding and media attention, and partly because men are not very good at talking about such delicate matters.
For more information please see the website: http://thegreatdragrace.org
There has also been released a 3-minute treaser trailer for the TV documentary which can be found here. Have a look, and forward to as many people as possible. It's for a very good cause!!
