Orchid

Each year in the UK, the lives of 55,000 men are turned upside down by a male cancer diagnosis, that is 151 men each day. It’s a big number but each man has his own story, his own fears and his own questions. Orchid, which fights male cancer is here for anyone affected. Our specialist nurse helpline guides, informs and helps men and their families who are all impacted by a diagnosis. Additionally, our information events and leaflets highlight the signs, symptoms and risk factors as we know that an early diagnosis can save lives.

Support when it is needed

Support when it is needed
Orchid’s freephone specialist nurse helpline provides a lifeline to anyone affected by a male cancer diagnosis.  They guide, listen and give vital information. Orchid is a small charity and therefore your donation will have a real impact on the work we are able to do.

Raising Awareness

Raising Awareness
There is still a lack of awareness of the signs, symptoms and risk factors of the three male cancers. Orchid’s education team delivers talks and well-being sessions, to increase knowledge because early diagnosis can really save lives.
