Happy New Year from The Prostate Project!
As we welcome 2026, many of us are thinking about resolutions - so here’s one that could save a life: make this the year you check your prostate health and ask your GP for a simple PSA blood test.

As people come together this Christmas, it’s a good moment to check in with the men you love. A simple conversation about prostate cancer - and the importance of early testing - can make a real difference. Talking openly could help someone you care about spot a risk sooner.

Huge thanks to Harry, not only for donating the profits of his book to The Prostate Project, but more importantly for sharing his own prostate cancer diagnosis.

We send our best wishes to Sir Cliff Richard, who shared his prostate cancer experience & a powerful message for men:
“Get there, get tested, get checked.”
If you’re over 50 (or higher risk), get a PSA test at your GP. Early detection saves lives www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/...

A PSA test is quick & simple blood test - nothing embarrassing or invasive.
It can help detect prostate cancer early, often before symptoms appear.
If you’re over 50, you have the right to ask your GP for a PSA test, even without symptoms or family history.

A quick reminder to please sign and share the petition from our friends at Prostate Cancer Research.
It’s reached almost 42,000 signatures, but they need 50,000 to strengthen the call for targeted prostate cancer screening for men at higher risk.

There’s still no UK screening programme for prostate cancer, but men do have the right to ask for a test if they’re worried. Saga answer all your questions.

A major UK trial is testing a new approach to prostate cancer screening, aiming to detect cancers earlier and more accurately. This could pave the way for the first national screening programme for prostate cancer.
