Don't be the 1 - Huddersfield prostate cancer support group

September  2024

The Yorkshire cancer Community asked the 1in4 team to collaborate our experience with a team from Huddersfield with the aim of them setting up their own local prostate cancer group.

We had the pleasure in welcoming Phil, Stephen and Kathy to our September meeting with an open discussion on our approach, where we are, and  what we've learnt.   

The Huddersfield Team are holding a launch event on Thursday 10th October at the Chestnut Community Centre Huddersfield, HD2 1HJ

The belief is for health and care research to be effective,  representation is required from all communities, in all different types of research, so if something works, it will be known to work for everyone

They  are a Network of research staff and members of the public from across the Yorkshire and Humber region, working alongside the Clinical Research Network Yorkshire and Humber, with a shared interest in increasing levels of participation in health research within Ethnic Minority communities throughout Yorkshire and Humber.
