Prostate cancer was for so long a neglected health issue – neither understood by the public nor prioritised by politicians. By any dimension, prostate cancer simply didn’t register on the radar screen.

It was against this background that The Prostate Cancer Charity was set up in 1996. In its relatively short life, the Charity has played a key role in raising both public awareness of the disease and political debate about services and support… and there is now a real sense that for the cause of prostate cancer, the time has come.

We are the largest and most comprehensive of the charities focused specifically on prostate cancer. We aim to provide hope for tomorrow through the research that we fund – and practical support for today through our extensive – and growing – information services.

Over recent years we have invested nearly £5 million in vital medical research and supported thousands of men and their families. Our contact with so many people whose lives have been directly affected by prostate cancer, feeds into all we do, giving us a real breadth of knowledge to underpin our work.

Our vision is to achieve for men, in relation to prostate cancer, what has so successfully been achieved for women and breast cancer. Our goals are set out clearly in our five-year strategy, A Cause for Action.

I count it a real privilege to be part of a movement that is pioneering changes in the priority accorded to men’s health. We will be increasing our efforts over the coming months and years to ensure that prostate cancer is placed, and stays, where it belongs – on the national health agenda.

I want us to be key players in a movement for change, engaging men with prostate cancer, their families and friends, and all those with an interest in the disease, in securing significant improvements in services and support. We are here to make a difference. I do hope that you will find this website helpful, whatever your interest may be in prostate cancer… and, of course, we will always welcome
