Same diagnosis. Different decisions.
Two men can hear the same four words “you have prostate cancer” and make very different treatment choices.
One may choose surgery. Another may choose focal therapy. Others may choose radiotherapy or active surveillance.
The important word is choice.
Because the right treatment decision isn’t the same for every man. It depends on the cancer, the individual, what treatments are suitable — and what matters to him.
At Prost8, we’re not here to tell men which treatment to choose.
We want to make sure they know the choices available to them.
💙 Know your diagnosis. Understand your options. Make the decision that’s right for you.

Finding prostate cancer earlier can change what happens next.

When cancer is found while it is still localised, there may be more treatment options available — and more opportunity to consider treatments that protect quality of life as well as treat the cancer.

For some men, that could include active surveillance. For others, it may mean minimally invasive focal treatments such as HIFU, cryotherapy or NanoKnife. And for some, surgery or radiotherapy will still be the most appropriate choice.

But as prostate cancer progresses, those choices can become more limited and more extensive treatment may be needed.

That’s why early detection matters.

At Prost8, we believe men should be diagnosed early and given clear information about all the appropriate treatment options available to them.

This could be as simple as a PSA blood test.

Because finding prostate cancer is only the first step. For more information on PSA testing visit prost8.org.uk/PSA (in partnership with The Graham Fulford Charitable Trust)

Find it earlier. Know your choices. Protect your future.

Focal therapy is having a moment…..

….and perhaps, after many years of being relatively unknown outside specialist circles, something is beginning to change.

Three high-profile men. Three prostate cancer diagnosis. Three men who chose focal treatment.

💙 The spotlight: Lord David Cameron's experience brought focal therapy and its potential quality-of-life benefits to a much wider public audience.

💙 The advocate: In December 2025, Prost8 helped Lord Graham Brady access focal treatment following his prostate cancer diagnosis. Today, he is a vocal Patron of Prost8, using his own experience to help champion greater awareness, access and choice for other men.

💙 The conversation: Jeremy Clarkson's decision to speak publicly about his prostate cancer and HIFU treatment has put focal therapy in front of an enormous audience — and has literally thousands more men talking about prostate cancer, early diagnosis and all treatment choices.

And there's more.

The Government has now committed up to £2.8 million to strengthen and expand focal therapy provision in England.

Put all of that together and it feels like a significant moment.

But attention isn't the same as access.

A man cannot benefit from a treatment he isn't told about — or will not realistically access because of where he lives.

That's where Prost8's work continues.

We don't believe focal therapy is right for every man. We believe every suitable man should know it may be an option and have a fair opportunity to access it.

The evidence is growing.
The attention is here.
The opportunity is here.

Now, let's turn that attention into awareness and accessibility. 💙

A huge thank you and well done to Russell Jefferies for completing the highly challenging French Alps ‘Classic Cols’ cycle ride in support of prost8.

An amazing achievement in itself and Russell chose the two year anniversary of completing his treatment to mark the occasion.

This challenge involved Russell cycling 9 Cols (mountains in layman terms) in 6 days with the key stats being:
7 nights / 6 days cycling covering 254 miles with a total combined elevation of a staggering 31800 ft (mount Everest is 29,000 ft to give some proportion)

Russell also managed to exceed his £1000 fundraising target to help more men receive better outcomes after prostate cancer. His JustGiving page is still open so please do donate - lets see if we can double his target https://www.justgiving.com/page/russ-jefferies-5?

Well done Russell for an amazing achievement and so proud to have you on the Prost8 team 💙

The Government has committed up to £2.8 million* in capital funding to strengthen and expand focal therapy treatment provision for prostate cancer in England.

Initial funding is expected to help existing focal therapy centres expand their services, with potential future expansion to new sites also being considered.

Importantly, the Government has said that geographical inequalities in access will be considered.

That matters.

Because a man can be clinically suitable for a minimally invasive treatment such as HIFU or cryotherapy — yet accessing it can still depend heavily on where he happens to live.

Currently, NHS hospitals offering focal treatments are still biased towards London and the South, with the furthest North being the new centre in Northampton. This still leaves the majority of men in England unable to access focal treatment without considerable travelling.

At Prost8, we’ve been working to change that by encouraging expansion of NHS focal therapy provision into areas where access is limited. We are working with hospitals across the country to bring these lifestyle saving treatments closer to the men who need them.

And we are even close to expansion into Wales and Scotland, where there is currently no focal treatment provision at all.

So we warmly welcome this investment and hope that those who will make the final decisions on locations look at the picture over the entire country and not just take the easy option and boost current facilities.

The evidence for focal therapy has moved forward. Recognition and demand is growing. Now we need to make sure access moves forward too.

💙 Where a man lives shouldn’t limit his prostate cancer treatment choices.
