We invite you to join the membership of Tackle Prostate Cancer - (The National Federation of Prostate Cancer Support Groups)
Our federation comprises Prostate Cancer Support Group Organisations, whose main mission is to serve and assist individuals living with, and affected by, prostate cancer. Day to day contact with these Support Groups primarily sits with individuals who hold leadership or organisational positions in support groups. These individuals, known as Support Group Leaders/Organisers, may include those who have personally experienced prostate cancer, their partners, families, and caregivers, as well as healthcare professionals who offer support to those diagnosed with, and affected by, prostate cancer through the provision of support groups.
Member Organisations are voting members for the Federation.
Membership Fee
