Launching the UK campaign in 2007, Movember raised over £1,100,000 for the The Prostate Cancer Charity.
All donations are made directly to the The Prostate Cancer Charity who are using the funds to create awareness, fund research, increase support resources and networks for those men who suffer from prostate cancer. Some of the specific programs include:
01
Research on a range of subjects from new drug treatments to studies exploring the practical support for carers of men affected by prostate cancer.
02
A dedicated lobbyist to work with government and other policy leaders for improved access to prostate cancer treatments.
03
Infrastructure investment to ensure resources are available to drive the TPCC forward.
04
Funding of a specialist nurse and awareness raising activities within the African Caribbean community who are at greater risk of prostate cancer.
05
Recruitment of men with prostate cancer to provide voluntary peer to peer support, and to raise awareness.
06
Additional specialist nurses for the TPCC Helpline which provides information and support to callers affected by prostate cancer.
