John Hartson: 'It’s about the awareness'
Former Arsenal, Celtic and Wales striker John Hartson talks about his charity work with his foundation to raise awareness among young men about testicular cancer.
"It’s not so much about raising money, it’s about the message."
"It’s about the awareness. It’s going early, when you feel a lump, or when you’ve got any things that you are not sure of, you've got to go and get checked."
The 43-year-old was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2009 and underwent emergency surgery after doctors discovered tumours in his brain and lungs.
