The Prostate Project

An unique volunteer-run charity, raising funds to support the Oncology Research Team at the University of Surrey, led by Professor Hardev Pandha. No paid staff and no paid for offices, so unlike many charities, admin costs are extremely low (only 5%). Since it was founded it has raised over £10m and funded major breakthroughs in diagnostics and treatment of Prostate Cancer, as well as building the £6m Stokes Centre for Urology, jointly funded by the Prostate Project and Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust. This partnership demonstrates how the NHS and charities can combine to provide first class care for patients. The Centre won overall ‘Project of the Year’ and also healthcare project of the year in the RICS social impact awards 2020 South East.
