PCaSO is a charity for those affected by Prostate Cancer run by those affected by Prostate Cancer. Covering Dorset, Hampshire and Sussex.
We have no offices, no highly paid executives nor any paid staff at all.
Everyone is a volunteer.
We have over a thousand members, mainly in Dorset, Hampshire and Sussex with some across the country and a handful abroad.
Our aim is to raise awareness and run public PSA testing events so that more men are diagnosed early when the chances of a cure is higher.
