Sunderland-born football legend Mick Harford is among those backing an "absolutely brilliant" new lifesaving initiative to take on prostate cancer: a football club called Prostate FC (PFC).
Launched by charity Prostate Cancer UK, PFC is a community of football fans, players and coaches aiming to work together to tackle prostate cancer. The idea is to spread the word about the brutal illness, and encourage anyone who might need to take a test, to get tested early and therefore stop the disease before it becomes more dangerous.
Mick, who played for both the Sunderland and Newcastle United before going on to become a Luton Town legend as a player and coach, is a big fan of the scheme, and has spoken about how he's had massive support from the "football family" on his own cancer journey.
