Members of the UCAN Team headed off on a tour of the North East during August to spread the word about UCAN.

The trip was highlighted by taking the UCAN bus along too. If you haven’t seen the bus, it features a 14 feet naked man with his hands strategically placed to protect his modesty!

Kate the fundraiser spoke to local companies and Rotary groups about the signs and symptoms of the four main urological cancers whilst either Linda or Lesley manned the bus to give advice and information to members of the public.

The bus has been in service around Aberdeen for the past 18 months visited 12 locations from Inverurie to Lossiemouth and attracted lots of attention. Sam McClinton co founder of UCAN said “It’s hugely important for us to reach as wide an audience as possible because urological cancers can strike anyone at anytime and the more people who are aware of the symptoms as early as possible, the better chance we have of increasing the number of patients who make a full recovery.”
