About Milton Keynes Prostate Cancer Support

Milton Keynes Prostate Cancer Support (MKPCS) was established in late 2014 on the initiative of the Urology staff at Milton Keynes Hospital.

 

Our objectives are to provide public awareness of prostate cancer and support people who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer or other prostate problems. We also support and their families and friends.

​

  • We are a Prostate Cancer UK Partner and a Member of Tackle, the Federation of Prostate Cancer Support Groups.

​

  • Prostate Cancer UK has awarded us a Certificate of Excellence for our work.

 

We maintain close links with clinicians to help members access information about their conditions and treatments. We aim to raise awareness of the consequences of prostate cancer, and to encourage men to seek early diagnosis.

​

We provide a safe, comfortable and informal environment for members to meet one another for mutual support. Be assured that we observe patient confidentiality very seriously.

 

  • Come along to our meetings to chat with other concerned people and share your experiences and concerns.
