Men’s Health Awareness Week – 15th-21st June – Cancer Prevention / Men’s Health Awareness Week – 15-21st June – Cancer Prevention
According to the excellent Marie Keating Foundation website 1in 3 men will be diagnosed with some form of cancer in their lifetime. The cancers that most often affect men in Ireland are prostate, bowel, lung, and skin cancers. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 15-34. Knowing about these cancers, what to look out for and what you can do to help prevent them or find them early (when they are small and easier to treat) may help save your life.
As the theme for todays Men’s Health Awareness is cancer prevention we encourage you to visit, read and view the following resources from the Marie Keating Foundation. Included below is a link to a 6 part webinar series on staying well called the Cancer and Covid19 Wellness. You will also find a link to their campaign titled Let’s Get Men Talking which includes a short video that I would encourage you all to view.
Finally, you can view an infographic called Your Health, Your Choice for strategies on how to prevent 4 of the most common cancers. Cancer and Covid19 Wellness.
