What a way to mark #InternationalMensDay Many years in planning with the prostate cancer research & clinical community-congratulations @matthew_hobbs for your tireless pursuit of the TRANSFORM trial.
Matt Hobbs@matthew_hobbs

2 years ago I said this twitter.com/matthew_hobbs/… about @ProstateUK 's commitment to generate evidence that will allow screening for prostate cancer. I'm beyond excited to reveal the first details of the trial that will get us there: TRANSFORM prostatecanceruk.org/research/trans… (1/3)

An inspirational day and a privilege to march alongside @JeffStelling to honour Bill Turnbull. Thank you to everybody who walked to raise awareness and funds for vital prostate cancer research. And to @GenesisCare for their generous support.

“Don’t wait like I did - check your risk.” One year on from his passing, Bill Turnbull's legacy lives on in the thousands of men he inspired to check their risk and get an early diagnosis. Let’s honour Bill’s legacy together. Let’s #BroadcastItLikeBill: bit.ly/3OVc4B6

It's #MensHealthWeek and I'm supporting @ProstateUK to bust some myths and misconceptions about prostate cancer. The most common cancer in men starts in a place half know next to nothing about. It's time to change that. Visit Prostate Cancer UK's website to find out more.

It was great to meet England coach, Gareth Southgate, at last night’s LMA End of Season Awards. Big thanks to Gareth and @LMA_Managers for their amazing support this season.

🧵 We could be one step closer to a UK screening programme for prostate cancer. Organised screening could cut deaths by 20%, but until recently the drawbacks outweighed the benefits. Our research has led to new scans and safer biopsies, meaning 67% fewer men experience harm.

This heart-wrenching story shows why we can’t accept the huge, unfair North-South divide in prostate cancer diagnoses. Check your risk in just 30 seconds: bit.ly/3ZpULfY

Shocking #ProstateCancer health inequality data. Every man should get an equal chance of a cure. We’re committed to improving awareness and working with the NHS in the communities most impacted.
Prostate Cancer UK@ProstateUK

Breaking: New data shows a huge North-South divide in prostate cancer diagnoses. There’s huge variation in the likelihood of men being diagnosed too late for a cure. It ranges from 1 in 8 in London to more than 1 in 3 in Scotland. Find out more: bit.ly/3kbmEYU

This is Karl whose life @billtu saved. Karl had Stage 3 #ProstateCancer - didn’t know but had similar symptoms to #BillTurnbull and got himself checked. He is here, like many others, because of that. If you do one thing today - take the risk checker on the @ProstateUK website x
