Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer for Kiwi men. A prostate cancer diagnosis can be an anxious and confusing time, often with more questions than answers.
Our role is to ensure no one has to face it alone - the individual directly affected, their family or whānau - by providing trusted information, practical support, and connection with others who understand the journey.
That support is not government funded. It only exists because people choose to fundraise.
- Toll-free nurse-led information and guidance
- Free counselling for partners and their loved ones
- National peer support network offering hope, connection and shared experiences
- Tailored exercise programmes helping men to not just survive, but thrive
- Advocacy & education to improve health outcomes for present, and future, generations
Te Ururoa Flavell - Living with my new mate
Another great day was had at Pedal4Prostate 2024, with almost 200 riders and their supporters. Our highest individual fundraiser was Te Ururoa Flavell, raising over $5000!
The former co-leader of Te Pati Maori is urging tane Maori to get themselves checked for prostate cancer. "Maori are twice as likely to die, because when we are diagnosed, we are often more sick, because it is detected late."
"I myself have been getting regular physical check-ups including a prostate blood test every 6 months for years now and this thing still snuck up on me."
Te Ururoa has been very open about his journey on social media, and his work in advocating for the importance of fundraising, and knowledge surrounding prostate cancer has been a great help to the Foundation.
"I thought I had a pretty good understanding of cancer, but since the beginning of this journey I have discovered that there is much more to learn. I want to share my journey with you all with the hope that it might help, ease, educate you or any of your loved ones going through this same journey. If that helps and save lives, I will be happy"
