1 in 4 Black men will get #ProstateCancer.
If you're Black, we strongly recommend you talk to your GP about the #PSABloodTest from 45.
We’re here to support you with information to help you take control.

We're calling on the government to update the NHS guidelines so that GPs can proactively talk to Black men about prostate cancer from the age of 45, giving them more chance of a lifesaving earlier diagnosis.
But we need your help.

Fantastic to see PCR's new report on prostate cancer screening discussed in the House of Commons today, and to hear that this is actively being considered by @DHSCgovuk. Our campaign for prostate cancer screening continues to receive cross-party support - together, we can save lives!

Prostate cancer affects thousands of lives every year and early detection is crucial.
Today in Parliament, I urged @wesstreeting to consider the excellent @PCR_News report on screening.
This will save lives and save the NHS money - more people need to know about it.

A prostate cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, and discussing related issues—particularly sensitive topics or concerns—can sometimes be difficult.

Encouraged to hear @wesstreeting comments on
@BBCr4today on early diagnosis of #ProstateCancer. @ProstateUK have already outlined solutions which directly address his points. We're calling for urgent action so that stories like Sir Chris Hoy’s can be avoided 💙
5 Nov 2024
[1/5] We're grateful to Sir @ChrisHoy for so bravely and openly telling his story on @BBCBreakfast this morning, and we welcome news that the Government is now actively looking into testing men who have a family history of #ProstateCancer from the age of 45.

You asked for a peer support service that feels like it's designed by Black men, for Black men.
So we're looking for steering group members to provide guidance on the peer support needs of Black men to help shape this new service.

When a man opens up about his prostate cancer diagnosis, he is fostering awareness within his community even though he maybe going an emotional battle. I would greatly appreciate it if you could share this post with anyone who might find it helpful. Thank you!
