Welcome to the spring 2003 edition of Vital.
Welcome to vital! This edition is dedicated to all the fantastic people who make our work possible – people like you. As word spreads of how vitally important it is to join the fight against prostate cancer, our supporters are going to the most extraordinary lengths to help us. You’ll read about their incredible efforts today – and all sorts of ways that you too can get involved.
From our national Fishathon competition to the chance to run for The Prostate Cancer Charity, get your friends and family to take part! You’ll have great fun and it’s all for a good cause – as Les Caldwell’s story illustrates.
Les’s story appears on page 8 and gives a fascinating insight into what it’s like to go through treatment for prostate cancer. One year on – apart from check ups from time to time – his prostate cancer is now under control. It’s an uplifting account, which shows just how important it is that men get the best possible treatment and advice.
I really hope you enjoy reading our latest news – and if you can, please consider helping us once more today. Our work is only possible with your support.
John Neate, Chief Executive
