The University Hospitals of Northamptonshire (UHN) Men’s Health and Wellbeing event will take place on Friday 6 November 2026, from midday to 4pm in the Cripps Large Hall, Area J, at Northampton General Hospital (NGH).
The event aims to raise awareness of prostate cancer, showcase diagnostic and treatment innovations, and provide health and wellbeing support for men. Visitors will have the opportunity to meet specialist teams, learn more about prostate cancer, and access resources from local providers.
NGH will also be displaying some of its innovative equipment, funded by Northamptonshire Health Charity, used in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. The hospital recently became the first in the East Midlands to acquire a new biopsy machine to enhance prostate cancer diagnosis.
