It's a Bloke Thing

It's a Bloke Thing The 'It’s a Bloke Thing Prostate Cancer Luncheon is an annual fundraising event benefiting various men’s health and research programs.

It’s A Bloke Thing is a not-for-profit (NFP) foundation that hosts annual fundraising and awareness-raising events for Prostate Cancer Research. The events include the highly anticipated, annual Wagners It’s A Bloke Thing Prostate Cancer Luncheon – now the largest day-time fundraising event in Queensland. The inaugural It’s A Bloke Thing Prostate Cancer Luncheon was held in Toowoomba in 2011, and

has since become a significant fundraising event, benefiting various men’s health and research programs, including the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and Toowoomba Base Hospital Foundation. An education program has been funded to continue its important work of delivering practical, life-saving health education across Queensland as part of our It’s A Bloke Thing roadshow. In addition, the funds raised from the event also enable a prostate cancer nurse to be employed full-time in South West Queensland (based in Toowoomba). This means that patients from this region no longer need to travel to Brisbane for specialist care and treatment. Excitingly, the It’s A Bloke Thing Luncheon has now also expanded to Darwin, with the inaugural Darwin It’s A Bloke Thing Prostate Cancer Luncheon to take place in February 2018.

September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, a reminder for blokes to prioritise their health.

Prostate cancer is Australia’s most commonly diagnosed cancer, and in its early stages, often shows no symptoms at all.

Age, family history and genetics can all influence your risk. If you’re over 50, younger with a family history of prostate cancer or know someone who needs to have their PSA checked, start the conversation. It could help save a father, a brother, a son or a mate.

Know your risk. Know your number.

🤝 Get to Know Our Sponsors – Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport

When people talk about game-changing infrastructure in regional Australia, Wellcamp Airport is always part of the conversation.

Since opening in 2014, Wellcamp has connected the Darling Downs and wider region to new opportunities through passenger travel, freight, aerospace, defence, training and innovation. More than just an airport, it has become a catalyst for regional growth and a symbol of what's possible when communities invest in their future.

We're incredibly grateful to have Wellcamp Airport supporting the It's A Bloke Thing Foundation and helping us continue raising awareness of prostate cancer, encouraging early detection and supporting Australian men and their families.
