COVID19 (Coronavirus)
Please Note:
July 2020 update – after further careful consideration we have now taken the difficult decision to cancel all PSA testing events for 2020 during the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak.
For some events you may see advertising by supporting groups e.g. Lions or Masons that had already been scheduled for publication prior to this decision.
Many men who come for testing, our volunteer helpers who run the events, and the phlebotomists who do the blood tests, are in ‘at risk’ groups.
Meetings
During this period PCaSO meetings are also cancelled.
Who we are
PCaSO is a charity for men diagnosed with prostate cancer run by patients diagnosed with prostate cancer.
No offices, no highly paid executives, no paid staff at all. Just volunteers working from home.
We know what you are going through and understand the pressures. You are not alone!
On this site is information about prostate cancer you can read or download, a number you can call to talk to someone (top left, every page), details of meetings where you can talk to other men who have been through what you are going through, background about PCaSO and what we do.
Prostate Cancer
Prostate Cancer is the most common cancer in men. Each year in the UK over 47,000 men are diagnosed with it and about 11,000 men die of it.
Support
When a man is diagnosed with prostate cancer his world stops. We are here to support and help you with group meetings, leaflets and much more.
PSA Testing
PCaSO arranges events where men over 45 can have a free test. We often work with Lions, Rotary and Freemason clubs who help with the organisation.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
Come to our meetings and talk to men who have been diagnosed
