Who We Are
We are a group of people affected by prostate cancer, either directly or indirectly through people we love. As well as getting the benefits of talking to people in a similar position, we enjoy the company of others in a relaxed setting.
Our Approach
As well as providing a supporting and social atmosphere we look to introduce our members to other support groups in the local area as well as sources of information and support on a national basis.
Our mission is to provide a safe, compassionate, and empowering environment where individuals dealing with their Prostate Cancer can rebuild their lives with dignity and strength.
As the PEEP programme comes to an end and is being replaced by a programme for all cancer patients, we feel it is the right time to expand our group to cater for all people affected in any way by prostate cancer.
- Why Join Us
Why Join Us?
If you live in Halifax or the surrounding area and are affected by prostate cancer we would love you to join our group.
There is nothing quite like talking through your prostate cancer experiences with people who can really understand what you are going through, as they have experienced it themselves.
Find out what other support is available
Whether it is local or national we can help finding information and access to other support groups in the local area.
Relaxed social gathering
We are a relaxed social gathering of people affected by prostate cancer. Conversations are held around small tables in a welcoming, confidential environment where you can get a beer, cup of tea or coffee and if you want something to eat.

“This support group has been a life saver for me. There is never any pressure to share experiences, but when it feels right to do so, people really listen. They don’t talk over you or compare you with their own experiences, they simply listen, empathise and encourage as only someone who has experienced similar things can.”
