Falcon Memorial Cancer Institute

FMCI is committed to delivering the targets of the World Cancer Declaration.

Operating since December 2020, FMCI works closely with hospitals specialized in oncology to identify and provide support to cancer fighters, celebrate cancer survivors, honour the taken, and never give up hope to patients and their close ones. It is foreseen that the death toll will increase to 16.3 million per year by 2040 (Source: Globocan 2020 and Cancer Tomorrow, IARC). Thus, FMCI embraces the battle against cancer through strategic partnerships involving members and other institutions interested in fighting cancer. It aims to save lives by focusing on what needs to be done, by building capacity to meet local needs. Among the planned activities of FMCI to contribute to World Cancer day, running person-to-person exchanges, such as awareness campaigns, workshops, & conferences about cancer, early cancer detection & cancer prevention around the island are on agenda. The Falcon Memorial Cancer Institute will be coming forward with other activities as a drive to call for action.

TESTICULAR CANCER: YOU’RE NEVER TOO YOUNG TO CHECK.

Unlike prostate cancer, testicular cancer mostly affects younger men, typically between the ages of 15 and 45.
It’s one of the most treatable cancers, but early detection is key.

Know the signs:
• A lump or swelling in one testicle
• A feeling of heaviness or pain in the sc***um
• A dull ache in the lower abdomen or groin
• A change in size or firmness of a testicle

It can develop quickly so make it a habit to self-check once a month, ideally after a warm shower when the skin is relaxed.

If you notice something unusual, see a doctor immediately.
Early detection means treatment success rates above 95%.

This Movember, let’s remind every man: you’re never too young to check.

Grow. Support. Empower.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CHECKED?

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men worldwide.
Statistics show that 1 in 8 men will face it during their lifetime but when it’s detected early, more than 98% survive.

The problem?
Most cases develop without symptoms, and men often avoid check-ups out of fear or silence.

Key signs to look out for:
• Difficulty or pain when urinating
• Weak or interrupted flow
• Blood in urine or semen
• Persistent lower-back or pelvic pain

If you’re 45 or older (or 40+ with a family history), talk to your doctor about screening.
It’s quick. It’s simple. It can save your life.

Let’s make health check-ups part of the conversation this Movember.

Grow. Support. Empower.

WHY THE MOUSTACHE?

Because it's hard to ignore.

A moustache makes people look twice, ask questions, and start conversations.
And those conversations matter because men often stay silent about their health.

Movember uses the moustache as a symbol to raise awareness around:
• Prostate cancer
• Testicular cancer
• Men’s mental health & su***de prevention

These are issues that affect thousands of men every year, yet are rarely talked about.

The moustache is a reminder to:
• Check in on your health
• Talk openly
• Support those around you
• Encourage early screening

This month, we’ll be sharing information, resources, guidance and support — so no one has to face these challenges alone.

Grow. Support. Empower.

MOVEMBER is here.
This month, we stand together to raise awareness around men’s health, especially prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health challenges that too often go unspoken.

The mustache is more than a symbol.
It’s a reminder to check in, to talk, and to support the men in our lives.

Throughout November, we’ll be sharing information, resources, and stories to help encourage early detection, open conversations, and stronger support networks.

Grow. Support. Empower.

The numbers tell the truth:
✅ When breast cancer is found early, survival rates are over 90% at 5 years.
❌ When it’s found late, survival drops to around 30%.

A monthly self-check, paired with regular screening, can literally be the difference between life and loss.

💗 Don’t wait for symptoms to worsen. Early detection saves lives. One check can save.

Survivors are living proof that breast cancer can be beaten. Every crown worn by a survivor represents courage, strength, and the power of early detection.

When breast cancer is caught early, survival rates are over 90%. Each story of survival is a reminder of hope and a call to action for all of us to spread awareness and encourage checks.

💗 To every survivor: you are stronger than cancer. To everyone else: one check can save your life.
