Paul Burstow is holding a public meeting to identify the care needed for men suffering from prostate cancer.

The MP for Sutton, Cheam and Minister of State for Health will hold the meeting in his constituency office.

It will be an opportunity for those affected by prostate cancer, health professionals, health commissioners and councillors to share their understanding of what high-quality care for people affected by prostate cancer should be like.

The meeting will be held from 2pm-3.30pm on February 24.

Mr Burstow said: "Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK. 37,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year, and one man dies of the disease every hour.

"In light of these figures I believe it’s essential that we know exactly what people affected by the disease require and expect from our health service and I am pleased to be working with the Prostate Cancer Charity."

The meeting will also help the Prostate Cancer Charity develop a national set of standards outlining the quality of care men diagnosed with the disease should receive.
