Thankyou 🩵
💙 Thank You – March for Men with Kev 2026 💙
What an incredible year!
Our fourth annual March for Men with Kev was our biggest yet, with over 400 walkers joining us in Petersfield to remember Kev, raise awareness of prostate cancer and support three charities that mean so much to us.
We are absolutely delighted to announce that together we have raised an incredible:
£15,700
We simply couldn't have achieved this without the amazing support of our community.
To every person who walked, donated, sponsored, volunteered, marshalled, fundraised, donated a prize, dressed a shop window, shared our posts or helped spread the word – thank you.
A huge thank you also goes to our wonderful local businesses, sponsors and supporters, and to everyone who gave their time to help make the day such a success.

4th Annual Event
13th September 2026
The funds raised will support Prostate Cancer UK, PCaSO – Prostate Cancer Support Organisation, and The Rosemary Foundation, helping them continue their important work.
But March for Men with Kev has always been about more than fundraising.
It is about raising awareness of prostate cancer. It is about encouraging men to understand their risk, have those important conversations and take action. And it is about bringing our community together to continue the work that Kev started.
Seeing more than 400 people walking through Petersfield in blue was incredibly special. What began in Kev's memory has grown into something we could never have imagined, and we know he would be immensely proud.
Over 400 walkers. £15,700 raised. One amazing community.
Thank you for making March for Men with Kev 2026 our biggest year yet.
Continuing your work, Kev. 💙
Early action saves lives.

WHY IT MATTERS
Every 45 minutes, one man dies from prostate cancer — more than 12,000 lives lost each year.
Prostate cancer is actually the most common cancer in men.
Over 64,000 men are diagnosed every year, that’s 175 men every single day.
1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.
In memory of Kevan Birkett 🩵
Raising awareness, encouraging testing and supporting
families affected by prostate cancer.
