Talking balls all across the country!
Darren Couchman used humour to help him fight his cancer and now uses this humour to raise awareness of male cancer.
Darren has completed a tour of the places in the UK whose names have reference to male genitalia, and organised a Private Parts protest, with testicular cancer survivors marching across London with pink fully balls!
In 2010 Darren successfully beat the World Record for the most amount of men simultaneously checking themselves, at his world cup family fun day in Clacton.
A great day was had by all, and the event certainly got everyone thinking about male cancer!
Darren says, "Testicular cancer is often seen as an embarrassing illness because of what it affects. We are trying to break down this barrier using humour."
Darren's 2009 walk was officially started by Dr Chris Steele MBE, from ITV's This Morning, who has been a long time supporter of The Testicle Tour. “Testicular cancer is often seen as a 'taboo' subject, but Darren wants to break down this barrier by putting some fun into his fundraising event, whilst still delivering a serious message backed by the medical profession,” said Dr Chris." I was honoured to officially start his latest event."
Everyman would like to say a huge thank you to Darren for his fantastic support. Over the last 3 years Darren's awareness work has been seen by thousands of people and undoubtedly saved lives.

The Testicle Tour and Everyman very much appreciates your help in making sure testicular cancer is talked about more. Thank you!
