Tuesday 14 April 2026, 6.15 for 6.30 – 7.30 pm
at St Francis Church, Pilgrim Close, Valley Park
(behind the Cleveland Bay pub)
Dr Steve Allen will give a presentation on Prostate Health
This session is especially for men over 50 and their partners
Thanks to Sir Chris Hoy and others, more folk are now aware of Prostate Cancer. Steve Allen is a doctor who’s been on the prostate cancer journey too. He’s on a mission to raise awareness, give information, aid understanding and lobby for screening more men. Early identification is critical for survival.
It’s a rather individual journey – both medically and emotionally. Dr Allen will explain the basic anatomy, the symptoms, treatments and implications. He’ll unveil all the issues and confront the myths that bedevil this subject.
There will also be information on the various charities - Prostate UK, PCaSO and Tackle, as well as organisations like Wessex Cancer, who offer a variety of supporting therapies to complete all-round treatment
