MEN’S health issues, including cancer and heart problems, were among the topics at a seminar at Les Cotils on Saturday.

Almost 100 health professionals attended the men’s health training day that included talks from experts, both local and from the UK.

Medical Specialist Group consultant urologist Owen Cole organised the event that was sponsored by Mug – Male Uprising Guernsey.

Early investigation and reassurance was key to men’s health issues whether they had a problem or not, he said.
