In this episode, Steve Bland talks to British athlete Joe Appiah, who shares his experience of prostate cancer and talks about prostate cancer risks, urging men with a higher risk to take action.
Joe is a British athlete with an impressive array of championship titles across hurdles, long jump and triple jump. Joe’s friend and hurdling rival was diagnosed with prostate cancer himself and encouraged Joe to speak to his GP. Now Joe wants to pass on the favour as he campaigns to raise awareness of the risk of prostate cancer, particular in the black community where the risk is higher.
This episode also covers key facts and stats about prostate cancer, especially for the black community where the risk is higher. Joe talks about his personal experience of prostate cancer combined with his athletics career, along with the community work he is doing to raise awareness of prostate cancer.
The episode includes a look at the key facts about prostate cancer and what to do if you are at a higher risk, with the key thing being to get a PSA test.
