Prostate Cancer Action Group (S.A.) Inc.
- A group of people concerned with prostate cancer issues who meet at the Cancer Council South Australia to plan services for people with prostate cancer.
- Prostate Cancer Action Group (S.A.) Inc. Constitution
This website is provided as a public service to create awareness and education about prostate cancer.
This Group, either as a Group or individually, does not treat or prescribe for any human disease, and is not a provider of professional advice. Nor does it purport to act as a provider of any professional advice. If any man has concerns about his prostate health, he should consult a health professional. The Group acts as a means of creating an awareness of prostate health, and encourages men to take a more proactive interest in their overall health situation, by promoting stimulation for independent thought and analysis.
Members of the group are available to speak at meetings. See contact details on Support Page. Please note also that two of our members are part of the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia Ambassador Program and are available to give a Prostate Cancer Presentation in South Australia. (Ian on 8296 3350 or Dean on 8390-3030) There are details of the Ambassadors program in the March 2007 Issue of Prostate News available here. There are other contact details in that story. ("Please contact Jo Fairbairn, PCFA’s National Corporate Partnerships & Health Promotion Manager (a member of the Rotary Club of Melbourne) to request a speaker at jfairbairn@prostate.org.au or 1800 206 700.") |
The group does not recommend any particular treatment or product, and stresses that it is important that any person should consult his/her health professional before making any decision about any treatments.
