Celebrating six months of our partnership with Maggie’s Highlands

We’re celebrating six months of our partnership with Maggie’s Highlands.  Our joint venture is part of our COMPASS project to support men to navigate prostate cancer.

Through COMPASS, men recently diagnosed with prostate cancer, and their families, can speak to a Cancer Support Specialist based at Maggie’s Highlands.

“If you have recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer and are looking for further information, or have questions, or you are living with prostate cancer and would like some further support – then this service is here for you.  Appointments are available by phone, by video call or in person at Maggie’s Highlands and the service is free of charge” said Seonaid Green, Maggie’s Highlands.

Said Christine Roxburgh, Services Development Manager at Prostate Scotland: “Since launching the service, we’re very pleased to have supported many men and their families from across the Highlands and Islands.  We’re looking forward to helping more and they can speak about any aspect of their diagnosis or about living with prostate cancer.”

About COMPASS

Prostate Scotland is currently developing a range of support and wellbeing services to help men across Scotland navigate prostate cancer and disease.  It is called our COMPASS project and it complements the care you receive from the medical experts.  In time it will cover information, courses, exercise programmes, workshops and support services.
