£1/4 BILLION AND COUNTING!

That’s a lot of money!

It’s a figure we’re very proud of. Why? 

2010 is the year that events that have been conceptualised, designed, launched and/or organised by Jim Cowan and Cowan Global broke the £1/4 Billion mark in terms of money raised for charities and good causes. 

The Race for Life was conceptualised, designed and launched by Jim Cowan (photo Heart.co.uk)

 

It all started in a small way during the mid ‘70s when Jim was a schoolboy and read about the Stoke Mandeville Appeal and its aim to build a national spinal injuries unit near Aylesbury. 

He organised a sponsored 48 hour cycle ride at his school using other students to raise sponsorship money, teachers to promote and parents to do both. The event was a success and Jim was bitten by the bug. 

Fast forward two decades and Jim was running Sporting Chance UK when he came up with the idea of a nationwide series of 5km runs to raise money for and promote the fight against breast cancer. 

One leading charity actually told him the idea would never work but the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (now Cancer Research UK) loved the idea and in Battersea Park in 1994 the Race For Life was born. 

There have been other ideas both big and small, some ideas raising a couple of hundred pounds, others into the thousands and more until in 2010 the £1/4 Billion mark was reached. 

We’re not stopping yet though. 

We’re launching Legends Talking Bollox! through which we aim to raise funds for the fight against testicular cancer. Nationwide we’ll be running sportsmen’s dinners and pub/club nights aimed and using a great night out to raise awareness of a very serious cause starting with football’s original hard man Ron ‘Chopper’ Harris and comedian Mickey Pugh at Arnold Town Football Club in Nottingham on 10th September. Booking details available here. 

By all talking bollox we can beat testicular cancer

 

We aren’t stopping there either, there are more events on the horizon, watch this space for details. 

And what of your events and fund raisers? If you want a great event organised by a team with a genuine track record of raising serious funds for charity, why not get in touch? Whether you’re a charity, a community group a business or an individual our expertise could make all the difference. All we ask is that you remember our company ethos for an event; it must be fun, easy to understand and benefit a good cause. 

Here’s to another £1/4 Billion before we’re done!

Why not help us fight testicular cancer by downloading a copy for your company or club noticeboard or shop window? Or you could ask us to post you an A5, A4 or A3 version.

And don’t forget to tell your friends and colleagues.

It’s okay to talk bollox, your life may depend on it!

LET’S TALK BOLLOX FOR A WORTHY CAUSE!

I beg your pardon?

No, you heard right; I’d like to talk bollox for a worthy cause!

The worthy cause is Everyman, the male cancer charity who we’re hoping to raise significant amounts of cash, as well as awareness for, over the coming years with a new series of events.

The events are called Legends Talking Bollox!

The way we see it, if you’re going to get people to sit up and pay attention it’s best done with a smile on your face.  So that’s what we’re going to do.

Legends Talking Bollox! is going to be an irreverent, entertaining series of events raising funds for and awareness of the fight against testicular cancer with a legend from the world of sport at each event. We’ll be auctioning sporting memorabilia too.

We’ll be talking bollox at sportsmen’s dinners, pubs, sports clubs and night clubs so there’ll be an appropriate night out for everyone so joining in and supporting the cause will be easy to do.

The focus will be on entertainment as we seek to raise awareness around the sensitive area (pun intended) of checking for and discussing testicular cancer. We’ve even coined a phrase;

“it’s okay to talk bollox, your life may depend on it!”

Want to get involved beyond simply buying tickets and joining us for a great night out?

We’re currently seeking partners for sponsorship and venue hosting so why not get in touch; jim@legendstalking.com

Sponsorship packages range from in kind support through to title sponsorship.

For venues, as long as you’re in the UK and don’t mind a good time in support of a great cause, we’d love to hear from you. If you’re not in the UK, drop us a line anyway. We’d like to talk bollocks everywhere!

PS. DID YOU KNOW BOLLOX IS NOT AN OFFENSIVE WORD?

Didn’t think so! It’s actually the only word in the entire English language which the Court has declared not offensive; and that’s not Bollox!
