The Dorset Branch of PCaSO was formed on 1st January 2008, out of the Dorset Branch of the Prostate Cancer Support Organisation, PSA. (PCaSO itself was originally formed from the Solent Branch of PSA.)
Public meetings are held on alternate months in the Bournemouth area, for men with prostate cancer, their families, relatives and anyone who may be interested. We meet in a friendly and informal way to exchange experiences and views. There is a speaker at most meetings to talk about prostate cancer and its treatment or about a variety of other matters such as diet impotence, incontinence and general well-being.
Wednesday 27th May 2009 at 7:30pm at St Mark`s Church Hall Talbot Woods, Bournemouth, BH10 4AE. For a map click here . The speaker will be Dr Claire Hastie, who leads prostate cancer research at the University of Portsmouth, and whose talk is entitled "Tigers or Pussycats".
Future meeting dates, all on Wednesday evenings at 7.30pm in St. Mark’s Church Hall: July 29th, September 30th, November 25th.
