Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer.

Prostate cancer that's detected early & still confined to the prostate gland, has the best chance of successful treatment.

UHNM has now stood down from Critical Incident. The Trust’s position has improved in the last 48 hours and emergency departments, while still busy, are no longer compromised.

We recognise the huge efforts made by colleagues throughout this period and thank them for their continued hard work.

The public can continue to help us manage these periods of demand by ensuring they are seeking help from the most appropriate health services, and only attending A&E for serious accidents and emergencies. We are still seeing people attend our emergency department who would be better cared for by alternative services. If you are unwell, visit NHS 111 online for 24/7 advice about the most appropriate care for your need.

Remember thinking about what you wanted to do when you grow up?

Imagine wanting to help people, to support those who are vulnerable, but being faced with abuse and physical violence.

Frontline workers must stay safe in order to protect you.
