Our Services
The Group aims to serve the local community, filling a need that is not available elsewhere, and aims to provide the following services:
- Opportunities for all members to support each other and anyone else who is affected, directly or indirectly, by this disease.
- Providing information and details of locally available resources.
- Raising awareness of this disease, both locally and Nationally.
- Recognising the very important role that self-support has for cancer sufferers and, as a consequence, the social aspect of this group has a high priority.
- Organising local PSA testing events and subsidising costs where possible.
- The Group welcomes donations and is engaged in fundraising to help run local PSA testing events.
- Support is also given to other local services where those suffering from prostate cancer may benefit, including providing equipment for hospital use.
