Acknowledging the effort Prostate Cancer Scotland wrote:-

We were thrilled to receive your continued support and would like to thank you for your initiative and hard work in holding your Rotary Ride at a time when it was difficult to plan an event. You did an excellent job of promoting the cause in your local community, and you generated tremendous support, helping us to reach out to more men and their families with information and support on prostate issues.

Please pass on our thanks, where possible, to those who so generously contributed the success of your event and to your fundraising – you’ve raised a tremendous amount, and we’re very grateful to you all for your efforts.

Your help and support are much appreciated, especially in the current situation which has led to the cancellation or postponement of many of our fundraising events and severe disruption to our fundraising. Despite this we have been able to move our support for those affected by prostate diseases forward significantly.

We are delighted to share with you that Prostate Scotland is currently developing a range of new services to help men across Scotland navigate prostate cancer. It is called our COMPASS project and in time it will cover information, courses, exercise programmes, workshops and support services. The services are all provided without charge to those benefiting from them.

As part of COMPASS, Prostate Scotland and Maggie’s Highlands launched a joint venture in August 2020 which offers access to a Cancer Support Specialist to men and their families living in the Highlands affected by prostate cancer. Men can speak to an experienced Maggie’s Cancer Support Specialist about any aspect of their diagnosis or living with prostate cancer. 

We know from speaking to men who have had prostate cancer that dealing with the side effects of treatment can often be more challenging than expected. We also know that having prostate cancer can impact many areas of people’s lives from relationships to finances and everything in between.

Appointments are available online or by phone as well as in person.
