The Scottish Association of Prostate Cancer Support Groups works on a national level:
- By making more people aware of prostate cancer.
- By encouraging improvements in early detection and treatment methods.
- By ensuring that patients have enough information to decide which course of treatment best suits their needs and why.
- By publicizing in newspapers, radio and TV, poster campaigns and leaflets, the risk and dangers of this hidden disease and the significance of urinary problems which may or may not be prostate cancer related.
- By providing practical and emotional support for men and their carers affected by prostate cancer.
- By setting up local support groups, run by men with prostate problems, their families and carers.
