🔔Will you hear the bell at 6pm? 🔔 Our Early Bell will ring at 6 pm this evening, for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, to highlight that 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in the UK. In just five years, the number of men living with prostate cancer in the UK has surged by 20%, so we’re encouraging everyone to take a moment, start the conversation, and find out the symptoms, because early diagnosis can make all the difference. If you or someone you care about have received a diagnosis and have questions or need support, the Macmillan Support Line is there to help. So, when the bell rings, have a chat with the men in your life and remind them to get checked. 💚
