“I'm not going to be quiet about this.”
Patrick Burrows was diagnosed in December 2023. Surgery that same month. Then it came back. Two months of daily radiotherapy, a hernia operation, and hormone therapy he's still on today. He's 63, and he's a DJ known across north-west London as Instructor. He knows exactly how many men in his community don't get tested until it's too late — so he started putting them in a room and telling them the truth.

A full church hall. A sex therapist, a urologist, a married couple, a comedian — and no question off limits.
