We are a charity with the aim of giving men a better chance of beating prostate cancer-by raising awareness & funding research into early diagnosis & treatment
A big thank you to everyone at Eastwick Road Allotments in Great Bookham who grew and donated plants for charity plant sales in aid of The Prostate Project and the Royal Surrey Charity Breast Unit Fund.
Their hard work and generosity helped raise money for both charities, with the proceeds shared equally between us.
We're very grateful for the support, and to everyone who bought plants and helped make the sales such a success.

Prostate cancer often has no symptoms in its early stages, which is why testing can be so important.
Black men are at higher risk of developing prostate cancer and are more likely to be diagnosed at a younger age. That's why Black men aged 45 and over are eligible for testing.
You may be eligible for a FREE PSA blood test if you are:
β’ A man aged 50β70
β’ A Black man aged 45
β’ A man aged 45β70 with a family history of prostate cancer, or a mother diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer
No appointment is needed, but you MUST bring your NHS number with you.
If you're in the area today, come and have a chat with the team.
