100 miles in April

This April, we’re asking you to join hundreds of others in taking on the 100 Miles in April Challenge for Pancreatic Cancer Action.

Do it in honour of someone you love, as a personal challenge, or simply to make a difference for a great cause.

Together, we’ll create a powerful community determined to change the future of pancreatic cancer.

Why? Because every single day, 26 people die from this disease. The only way we can change that number is through early diagnosis, and we need your help to make it happen.

We're walking towards a world without pancreatic cancer

Sign up today, raise a minimum of £60, and make your miles matter.

Challenge rewards

To celebrate your fundraising, we’ve got some exciting incentives to keep you motivated:

Be quick as these are limited, so the earlier you start fundraising, the more chance you have of grabbing your exclusive PCA gear!

  1. Sign up: Join the challenge here.
  2. Set up your fundraising page: You’ll receive your own personal page to share your story, upload a photo, and explain why this challenge matters to you.
  3. Spread the word: Share your page with friends, family, and colleagues to rally support.
  4. Stay motivated: We’ll be with you every step of the way, sharing tips, encouragement, and stories from others in the challenge community.

How your fundraising helps

💜 £30 could fund trusted information booklets sent directly to someone newly diagnosed or worried about symptoms, giving them clarity and hope at one of the most frightening times of their life.

💜 £60 could help us run life-saving awareness campaigns and keep our health information accurate and accessible, so more people spot the symptoms early.

💜 £250 helps us equip GPs and pharmacists with expert resources, so they can recognise pancreatic cancer sooner and give patients the most precious gift of all: time.

What Pancreatic Cancer Action does

At Pancreatic Cancer Action, everything we do is focused on saving lives through early diagnosis and supporting people affected by this disease. Here’s how we make a difference:

Helping healthcare professionals
We educate GPs, pharmacists and specialists through free resources and e-learning so they can spot the signs of pancreatic cancer earlier and refer patients quickly.

Supporting patients and families
We provide free, trusted information to people who are newly diagnosed or living with pancreatic cancer, offering guidance and reassurance at a time when it’s needed most.

Raising public awareness
Too many people haven’t even heard of pancreatic cancer until diagnosis. We work hard to change that by running awareness campaigns to help more people recognise the symptoms sooner.

Campaigning for change
We speak up for everyone affected by pancreatic cancer, lobbying government and decision-makers to tackle funding gaps, inequalities in care, access to treatments, and survival rates.

Did you know?

That’s why your miles matter. That’s why your fundraising matters.
And that’s why we need you to take action this April.

Sign up today and make your miles count for pancreatic cancer.
