Edinburgh and Lothian Prostate Cancer Support Group

A self-help group run by and for men with prostate cancer in Edinburgh and the Lothians

We are a self-help group, managed by and for men with prostate cancer, their families and carers. All have, or have had, prostate cancer and are undergoing various forms of treatment. We share experiences of diagnosis and treatment hearing how other patients and carers are coping.

We provide a 'buddy' service, regular meetings in Edinburgh and West Lothian, and provide a friendly and supportive ear. We also run a walking group in Edinburgh and a ladies' group in West Lothian.

New members can be assured of a warm welcome and the opportunity to meet men dealing with the same issues.

We receive no government funding and depend on donations to finance our work.

Volunteers needed

We have an active committee which runs regular members' meetings and from time to time we organise larger awareness-raising events. Support for such activities would be greatly appreciated as would some input towards improving our social media presence.
