Canada has over 70 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 Seniors 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. Or join the free Zoom meeting at the same time.

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 Tuesday to Friday from 9 am-11 am, along the beautiful river dykes and parks in Richmond (Walk in the Richmond Shopping Centre during the rainy/cold days).

列治文華人前列腺癌支援網絡十二月十日聚會 Richmond Chinese Prostate Cancer Networking Group December 10, 2015 meeting



由於許多成員的意見，我們現有的會議地點是離市中心太遠，依賴公共交通的人非常不方便。我們正在尋求一個新的主要用於2016年外展計劃的會議場地。也許本週四（12月10日，6-8pm）將是我們最後一次在Garratt健康中心會議。因此請盡你所能參加。

我們會分享兩個短視頻和一本書：
"了解您的病理報告"，主講人：特魯德爾博士
"消退去勢後復發的前列腺癌"，主講人：薩達爾博士博士，卑詩省癌症局
"2015年對前列腺疾病的年度報告" - 哈佛大學醫學院

欲了解更多消息，每月的會議時間和地點請瀏覽我們的博客 http://richmondprostate.blogspot.ca/

As the result of feedback from many members, our existing meeting place is too far from the city centre. It is very inconvenient for the guest rely on public transit. Therefore we are seeking a new venue for our monthly meeting in 2016 mainly for out-reach programs. Probably this Thursday (Dec 10, 6-8pm) will be our last meeting at Garratt Wellness Centre. Therefore please try your best to attend.

We have two short videos and one book to share this month:
Understanding Your Pathology Report, Speaker: Dr. Dominique Trudel
