Happy Friday! It's International Beer Day! 🍺
Last month we had the pleasure of sponsoring the Leicester Lions Beer Festival, which donated all profits to @PROSTaid.
We even had our own exclusive beer and pint glass. Cheers to that! 🍻

Prostate cancer is something we should always talk about as a community. It was wonderful to have Stuart from @PROSTaid down at the centre to talk about risks/causes/symptoms and to answer some very important questions! Thank you to all involved!

These engagement events in the community help to raise important awareness of #prostatecancer and help towards tackling #Healthinequalities in higher risk groups @East_Genomics @Leic_hospital @NHSgms
One in four black men will get prostate cancer. Sylvester is one of those men. He sat down with @BolaOwolabi8 to play dominoes and talk about it.
See the work happening in the NHS to narrow the health inequalities gap and find new ways to reach communities. 🔽

In honour of this great woman, Pamela Campbell - Morris, we gathered today united against prostate cancer, raising awareness in the Black African & Caribbean community through deep collaboration between @NHSEngland @NHSgms @bmecancer @Leic_hospital @PROSTaid @EthnicHealthRes
Thinking about legacies and the work of the late Pamela Campbell-Morris.
@BolaOwolabi8 asks what will be the legacy of the pandemic? That everyone’s access to, experience of and outcomes from healthcare aren’t determined by their postcode or ethnicity. #healthinequality
