Fundraising FAQs

If you would like a charity representative to attend a cheque collection or your event, please contact [email protected] with as much notice and detail as possible, and we can see if anyone is available.

Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee someone will be able to attend, as it is dependent on volunteers in the area and their availability, but please know that we are still incredibly grateful for your efforts and all the funds and awareness you have raised.

If you are looking for tools to raise awareness whilst you fundraise, please check out our awareness publications.

We believe that every man has the right to a free PSA blood test from their GP and they should be given balanced information to make an informed choice about the PSA test. We recommend that men use our risk checker to get information about their prostate cancer risk and the facts about the PSA test. If men want to discuss their risk of prostate cancer and the PSA test, then they should make an appointment to speak to their GP. If they’re struggling to get an appointment with a GP, you can signpost them to our Specialist Nurses.

Unfortunately, we are unable to support with PSA testing at your event. You can find out more about our position on community PSA testing in our statement. We kindly ask that you try to keep your PSA community testing separate from any Prostate Cancer UK fundraising/branding, as it may seem confusing to those who are aware of our official stance.

We can provide a range of resources that can help men to understand their risk and encourage them to seek support if they need to, including our 30-second risk checker.

Prostate Cancer UK cannot cover any expenses from your events. You can cover costs out of the donations, but you must be explicit when collecting and let your donors know.

If you have any questions or are ever in need of confidential and medical support or information, please visit our Health Information page. We’re here to support you.
