Giving Men a Better Chance of Beating Prostate Cancer
Welcome to our website, and whatever your reason for visiting, we hope that you find the information, support or comfort that you are seeking.
We pride ourselves on being run almost entirely by volunteers and on keeping administration costs below 5%, meaning nearly all your donation goes directly to the point of need. Based at the Stokes Centre for Urology at Royal Surrey County Hospital, our aims are quite simple.
Since 1998, we have been raising awareness and funds to help save and prolong the lives of men with prostate cancer.
This website will show how we go about our work, supporting ground-breaking cancer research and providing some of the equipment that has made Surrey into one of the world’s finest centres for the treatment, and research into urological cancers.
Thanks to you, we’ve raised £200k and purchased a brand new Mobile PSA Testing Clinic (‘Man Van’)
Arranging a PSA Blood Test
Thank you for taking the positive step towards arranging a PSA Blood Test for yourself, or a loved one. Caught early, prostate cancer is usually curable. PSA blood tests are used to help detect prostate cancer.
As you may have seen in the press or heard on the radio, the Prostate Project’s Man Van will be at events in southeast England, helping to save and prolong the lives of men by providing access to PSA tests.
In additional good news, we have partnered with the My PSA Tests and Cancer Testing South so that even more men over the age of 50 will have access to a PSA Test. We are currently working hard to arrange the testing schedule and choosing locations for the Man Van to visit…so please keep an eye out for dates near you.
In the meantime, you can book a PSA test via the Cancer Testing South website.
Alternatively, you can contact your GP or primary health provider and ask for a free PSA Blood Test
You can also read more about the Man Van on the BBC News website
As Prostate Cancer often has no symptoms in its early stages, so for men aged 50+, family history and black, the PSA Test is a life-saving indicator that things might not be right, and the sooner you, or a loved one, gets tested the better.
Caught early, Prostate Cancer is treatable and manageable, so well done on taking the first step.
