Overview
- Toby Freeman covered the route from Bowness-on-Solway to North Shields over three days dressed as a giant pair of testicles.
- The Big Ballsy Challenge raised about £17,000 for The Robin Cancer Trust, which provides free support packs for young cancer patients and their families.
- Freeman founded the trust in 2012 after his brother Robin died at 24 from stage four testicular cancer in 2011.
- The stunt aims to destigmatize testicular cancer and encourage men to perform regular self-examinations.
- Early detection of testicular cancer offers a 96% cure rate, underscoring the importance of awareness efforts.
