It’s FREE to attend, but please sign up for your place at topicofcancer.org/
It’s Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. Our Chairman, Martin Davies, knows first-hand what it’s like to have prostate cancer return after surgery.
In this video, Martin talks about his experience of undergoing further radiotherapy and the side effects he faced.
Prostate Project volunteer Clive was interviewed by That’s TV Surrey at Goodwood Revival over the weekend.
A big thank you to That’s TV Surrey for helping us spread the word about prostate cancer and the work of our Man Van during Prostate Cancer Awareness Month.
Our Prostate Project Man Van will be out and about over the next few weeks, offering free PSA blood tests.

Our Man Van travels across Surrey, Hampshire and West Sussex, taking free PSA testing out into local communities, but keeping it on the road comes at a cost.
We’re looking for commercial sponsors to help towards fuel, maintenance, testing kits and our professional phlebotomists.
If you know a local business that might like to support the Man Van and help us reach more men, we’d love to hear from them.
