When it comes to health and disease prevention, education is so important. With 30% more men than women dying from cancer each year, we want to educate our male dominated workforce about the risks and symptoms of prostate cancer and do our bit to support the Blue September initiative.

On Monday we hosted a fundraising lunch and awareness session in each of our offices, where the guys (and gals) sat down to a lunch filled with cancer fighting foods and learned about the symptoms and dangers of prostate cancer – with all proceeds going to the Blue September initiative.

Blue September’s key mission in 2015 is to raise funds to purchase early diagnosis, specialised equipment for the new Prostate Cancer Centre, a world class men’s health clinic that is an initiative of APCR. The equipment will reduce a cancer diagnosis waiting time in the public system from four to six months to just a few days!

And every month counts when it comes to being diagnosed with cancer!
