Prostate Cancer Foundation New Zealand

Providing an environment that empowers men to make informed decisions about the diagnosis and treatment of their prostate cancer.

Auckland

The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCFNZ) has a significant role in promoting public awareness of this disease. With over 4000 New Zealand men being diagnosed each year, and with early detection leading to better outcomes, it is important that men are aware of the signs of potential disease and also of the PSA screening test that is available from their doctor.

A prostate cancer diagnosis can be an anxious and confusing time, often presenting more questions than answers for men, and those around them. PCFNZ has a broad portfolio of in-person and remote services to assist them through the process and live their best life beyond prostate cancer, all at no cost.

These include a toll-free Information Service 0800 660 800, Online Support Forum, Counselling Service, Welfare Grants Service, Support Groups, Rainbow Blue peer support network for the GBT+ community, Prostate Cancer Patient Empowerment Programme (PC-PEP) and Prost-FIT, an exercise programme designed specifically for men living with prostate cancer.
