Stamford Prostate Cancer Support
Our goal is to provide peer support, information, and friendship for people affected by prostate cancer in Stamford and the surrounding area.
---Inaugural meeting on 18th February 2026---
What does Stamford Prostate Cancer Support do?
We have monthly meetings on the 3rd Wednesday of the month. The meetings are in the evening, so people who are working can make it.
At the meetings, you will meet others who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, are having treatment, or are in remission. You will meet partners who know what it's like when a loved one gets a cancer diagnosis.
Support Our Work
Your donation helps us to give that support to men and their partners by providing funds for us to operate as a community group, invest in publicity materials, and hire a meeting space each month.
Any funds that are left over will be donated to Prostate Cancer Charities.

Prostate Cancer Awareness
The light blue ribbon represents prostate cancer, and it is the symbol for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, which is in September. Wearing a light blue ribbon is a way to show support for those affected by the disease, raise awareness, and encourage early detection through screening.

Stamford & Rutland Cancer Support
Stamford Cancer Support Group started in 2024 to address a need for those affected by cancer in the Stamford area.
We are a not-for-profit group that was set up by Joan Richardson in 2024. Joan visited groups in Peterborough and Oakham and decided to start a support group in Stamford after contacting health professionals and voluntary groups in Stamford and canvassing friends and family. In January 2025, the group merged with the Rutland and Melton Cancer Support Group to become the Stamford and Rutland Cancer Support Group.
