The web Directory of Information Materials for People Affected by Cancer is regularly updated and currently has details of over 1,900 booklets, leaflets, books and audiovisual materials for people affected by cancer. Most have been published in the last five years but we have included some older ones that are still useful.

This booklet is for men living with prostate cancer, before during and after treatment. It is also for men who may be having their prostate cancer monitored, rather than having treatment. It contains information about the physical and emotional effects of living with prostate cancer and treatment, and looks at ways to manage them. It also provides information about practical issues such as work and money.
