Prostaid

PROSTaid are a local Charity mainly run by prostate cancer patients, families, friends and urological professionals. We will give you the information you need to make your choice of treatment as well as the opportunity to put you in touch with other local men who have been successfully treated. We at PROSTaid are a local Charity formed in 2006 with a positive attitude to prostate cancer and our aim is still to continue to improve treatments and save lives! We fund two local PROSTaid prostate cancer nurses in the East Midlands, based in Leicester, more than anywhere else in the NHS! We are currently trying to raise enough money to provide a 3rd nurse. We raise public awareness of the disease locally, offer vital support and befriending for patients with the disease by men who have prostate cancer. We provide five Support groups throughout our area, to give support to local men newly diagnosed and treated and to patients with advanced prostate cancer. We fund new innovative treatments, tests and equipment.
