the P pod on location around Petersfield

Julie and Mike meet participants, organisers and members of Kev's family as the fourth annual march for men takes place in Petersfield. The event aims to raise awareness of Prostate Cancer and the PSA tests that can help to identify men who might be vulnerable to it. Prostate cancer facts Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. More than 64,000 men are diagnosed every year. Every 45 minutes one man dies from prostate cancer. More than 12,000 lives lost each year. Incredible to think that 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed in their lifetime. Despite this, the NHS has not yet agreed to provide universal PSA testing. Charities like Prostate Cancer UK and PCaSO have stepped in to help save lives. Funds from this event go to these organisations and Petersfield's Rosemary Foundation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
