Local Prostate Cancer Support Group recognised in Parliament Each year in Australia, 20,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer, making it our most common cancer.
THE MEETING POINT OF LANE COVE
OPEN FOR LUNCH + DINNER Trent Zimmerman MP recently attended a meeting of the North Shore Prostate Cancer Support Group and met with Treasurer David Kutcher, long term member Stewart Begg and convenor John Fullagar.
For those who are diagnosed with prostate cancer, support and information are vital. Trent Zimmerman MP recently presented a statement in Parliament that recognised the work of the North Shore Prostate Cancer Support Group. This followed his attendance at one of the group’s regular meetings, enabling him to see first-hand the support that it offers. The North Shore Prostate Cancer Support Group has operated out of the Royal North Shore Hospital for over two decades, with speakers drawn from some of the nation's leading medical experts. “Like the many support groups of this type found across the nation, it is run entirely by volunteers and plays an incredibly important role in helping men with prostate cancer, their families and friends,” said Mr Zimmerman. “Members of the group are able to share experiences in what is clearly a friendly and welcoming environment. Organisations like this help so many people during what can be a confusing and difficult period, and I thank them on behalf of my community. “I pay tribute to those involved in running the group: the convener, John Fullagar, and his committee. I should also mention the irrepressible Stewart Begg, who encouraged me to attend.” Mr Zimmerman also acknowledged the support the group receives from the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
“Knowledge is power, and the embrace of peers provides comfort and strength.”
