4 will all be being played at Wandle Park this Saturday in aid of The Prostate Cancer Charity. The giant outdoor games will be available as part of the Get Twisted fun day running throughout the afternoon that will include a variety of events. Michael Obiora, who played Ben Trueman in Hotel Babylon for three years and also appeared in four episodes of EastEnders in June, will be taking part in a celebrity auction, while Mr Cee and Anika Wilson will perform a comedy show. There will be music playing throughout the afternoon and also a free picnic on offer for all 25 to 40 year-olds.
The event is a new concept organised by Hotminute, aiming to increase awareness of prostate cancer, which is three times more likely to effect young African Caribbean communities than other ethnic groups.
