Out with Prostate Cancer

OUT WITH PROSTATE CANCER


What Out with Prostate Cancer is about


Our Group offers mutual support, shared experience and practical information to those who face the many challenges that come with a diagnosis of prostate cancer (We do not offer medical advice on individual cases and suggest you contact your GP, Prostate Cancer UK or Macmillan Cancer Care).
Our Group is directed primarily at gay and bisexual men, trans-women and non-binary people, including those who are:

  • frightened by what is happening to them
  • apprehensive about treatment and want to see how others have coped
  • coping well and don't need support — but come along to support others
  • happily in remission and attend the group to show others it can get better

 Through the sharing of experiences, down-to-earth anecdotal advice and the provision of an open forum, the group aims to assist members to reduce feelings of isolation and to gain perspective.


GROUP MEETINGS


The group meets on the first Saturday of every month between 2pm and 4pm.

They are hybrid meetings, in-person in the centre of Manchester and simultaneously on Zoom.

What gets discussed at our meetings?


Our meetings are confidential so we are very grateful to Foxes Afloat for allowing us to share their video here as it is a good example of the sorts of topics and discussions that you can expect at a meeting.


Foxes Afloat aren't associated with us in any way, they've just shown us a kindness and are as keen as we are to raise awareness and support of Prostate Cancer.
