Prostate Cancer
"Together with the brightest minds in research, we aim to achieve significant breakthroughs in the hope of beating prostate cancer. Our disruptive funding approach identifies revolutionary ways to accelerate health outcomes by creating strong, global collaborative teams." Dr. Colleen Nelson, Global Scientific Chair.
Men's Health
"One Mo can help change the face of men’s health through the powerful conversations created globally during Movember. Men have the chance to confidently discuss men’s health with people around them, resulting in men taking action early, helping change and save lives." Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs
Mental health and suicide prevention
“The number of men taking their own lives around the world is one of the biggest challenges of our time. Movember is working to ensure all men and boys look after their mental health and are comfortable to seek help when they’re struggling.”
Brendan Maher, Global Director, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.
Testicular Cancer
“Despite being the 2nd most common cancer in young men, testicular cancer is often a forgotten cancer due to early detection and treatment. Our projects look at underinvested areas such as improving access to healthcare services and treatment options for relapse” Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs.

About the project

The Prostate Cancer Specialist Nurse CASE Initiative is a 5 year programme to pilot the provision of a prostate cancer specialist nurse led clinic to provide quality of life follow-up care. The function of the programme is to enhance current clinical care through the provision of follow-up for side effects which can cause men distress at various stages following prostate cancer treatment, alongside consultant led clinical follow-up. The programme is intended to add value to current follow-up arrangements rather than to replace them. It seeks to streamline access to support services making it easier for men to navigate and access help. 

The goal is to reduce the impact of treatment consequences on men with prostate cancer in the long term by providing care, advice, support and education to the patient experiencing side effects. 

The project is advised by national experts in urology, radiotherapy, nursing, patient advocacy and cancer policy.
