Boxer, @DynamiteDubois, is backing our campaign to change NHS guidelines.
Right now, guidance prevents GPs from telling Black men about their prostate cancer risk.
It shouldn't be this way.
With your help, we can make a change.

And it’s putting their lives at risk.

Black men are being put in disproportionate danger of dying from a prostate cancer, due to significant health inequities and outdated NHS guidelines, warns Prostate Cancer UK.
1 in 4 Black men will get prostate cancer, and they have twice the risk of dying from it.

Looking forward to contributing. There is much that can be done to reduce the harm caused by prostate cancer - the biggest cancer killer in men. We have practical solutions that can make diagnosis faster, fairer & better - so that the NHS can save thousands of men's lives a year.

The @ProstateUK Risk Checker is the wording from the current NHS Guidelines. We hope these will be updated soon, but in the meantime I'm sure you agree that raising awareness of risk and explaining pros and cons of the PSA test is a good place to start prostatecanceruk.org/for-hea…
Unfortunately, the @ProstateUK risk checker just ends up telling everyone over 50 they are at risk.
Not a great tool. In fact, far from it given its over-simplification.
And yes, many have told them this!

New evidence proves that the way we diagnose prostate cancer is safer for men.
Now we're asking the government to update NHS guidelines so that GPs can proactively discuss the disease and the PSA blood test with men at highest risk.
