Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid will host a second Central Coast Big Aussie Luncheon on December 2 after the success of last year’s event.
It will be held in partnership with the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and Novartis Pharmaceuticals to raise greater awareness of prostate cancer among men aged from 40 up.
The day will include a free lunch and presentations by representatives from the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australian and Reid, with all men aged 40 and over welcome.
Last year’s successful inaugural luncheon had nearly 150 attendees and took place at the Davistown RSL Club.
“It is vitally important that men over the age of 40 get a prostate check; these days it’s as easy as a blood test,” Reid said.
“In Australia, 26,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year, making the disease our nation’s most diagnosed cancer.
“This free lunch and presentation are all about raising greater awareness of the disease and informing people that there are supports available, plus lots of useful information.
“I encourage men in our community to come along, share a meal, and learn more about how they can safeguard their health.”
The event will take place at Gosford RSL Club on Monday, December 2, from 1pm-3pm.
