Pinpoint Prostate Cancer Appeal
The Pinpoint Prostate Cancer Appeal is raising funds to purchase specialist equipment for Blackpool Victoria Hospital, which will detect and pinpoint precise images of the sites of prostate cancer. This will radically improve the diagnosis and subsequent treatment of prostate cancer for patients across the Fylde Coast. It also means that local patients will no longer have to travel to Manchester to undergo certain procedures. Prostate cancer kills more than 10,000 men each year in the UK but, if detected early, there is every chance of making a full recovery.
If you are interested in supporting the Pinpoint Prostate Cancer Appeal, please contact Kathy Ancell, Fundraising Manager, on 01253 65766 or email kathy@blueskieshospitalsfund.org.uk
You can also make a donation via the Pinpoint Protate Cancer Appeal - JustGiving Website.

Everyone is invited to dedicate a light in the Quiet Garden for a suggested minimum donation of £5 per light. All dedications will be entered into a Book of Remembrance which will be on view in the Chapel throughout December.
