Canada has over 60 Prostate Cancer Support Groups that meet once a month. This Richmond group in British Columbia is founded in 2013 by volunteers and focused on providing help to Chinese-speaking men, but everyone is welcome. We speak English, Cantonese and Mandarin, meet on the second Thursday of every month from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm at the Seniors Centre of Minoru Centre for Active Living (7191 Granville Avenue, Richmond, BC V6Y 1N9 Multipurpose Room 1 (1033)). Join us for the professional presentation and talk to other men and family members who have been dealing with prostate cancer for weeks, months or even years.

No registration is required and all ages are welcome. Please swipe your Facility Pass ($36/year for seniors 55+ or spouses) or pay a $5 drop-in fee at the front desk when arriving for each session.

If you want to chat one on one with a survivor, you may drop in our walking club. The Richmond Blue Walkers walk 5-10 km on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 am-11 am, along the beautiful river dykes and parks in Richmond (Walk in the Richmond Shopping Centre during the rainy days or cold seasons).

3月14日健康講座（設即時傳譯）
列治文的前列腺癌華語支援網絡(Richmond Chinese Prostate Cancer Networking Group)已經成立。目前卑斯省共有26個前列腺癌基金會主辦的支援網絡，而列治文新成立的小組乃唯一設有華語服務的小組，歡迎說華語的病人及親友參加。

另外，由於列治文仍未有英文小組 ，故亦歡迎說英語的朋友參加。

小組計劃舉辦每月一次兩小時的聚會，邀請中英專業人仕主辦醫療與健康講座，了解前列腺癌的病徵、預防、治療、康復與最新醫療硏究等資訊（設即時傳譯）。講座後分為英語、粵語和普通話小組，在安全保密的氣氛下，交流經驗與感受。

詳情如下：

日期：每月第二個週四。
時間：下午6時至8時。
地點：Garratt Wellness Centre, 7504 Chelsea Place, Richmond BC V7C 3S9 。
駕車與坐公車朋友請參考地圖。

乘坐402公車從列治文巿中心到達會議地點大約十分鐘，請記得在BLUNDELL RD AT CHEVIOT PL 車站下車 (即列治文二號路夾Blundell路的Saveway 超市對面），向CHEVIOT PL 街步行，沿路有Garratt Wellness Centre棕色路牌指示。
