Cahonas Scotland - The Lowdown on Testicular Cancer Scottish Registered Charity - SC040786 Cahonas Scotland grew from the recognition that although male cancer awareness was slowly growing, there was no real Scottish focus. We want to work with partners, organisations and men themselves to raise the profile of male cancers and help turn round Scotland’s poor health record. Cahonas Scotland mission is to: Increase the availability of information and support services geared to the needs of men living with cancer and life limiting disease Help educate the public in matters relating to male cancers, reducing discrimination and stigma from the cancer experience Relieve hardship, distress and suffering of men experiencing cancer and life limiting disease. Listen to the experiences of men throughout Scotland to make sure our information and future activities help bring about real positive change in Male Cancer Awareness Working in partnership, Cahonas Scotland aims to make sure that men in Scotland, particularly those most at risk of significant health inequalities, have open access to information. Our materials and our work will be both accessible and effective ensuring that men throughout Scotland are no longer embarrassed to confront their health issues.
