| Performance Notes | For one night only, Prostate Cancer UK, Jools Holland and an all-star line up unite to Raise the Roof and stop lives being rocked by prostate cancer.
Hosted by AJ Odudu and Jim Moir, this unforgettable evening of music and comedy will include performances by Celeste, Melanie C, Paloma Faith, Paul Weller, Ruby Turner and Van Morrison. Stand-up stars Gina Yashere, Omid Djalili, Stephen K Amos and Shaparak Khorsandi will showcase their comedic talents.
Raise the Roof is the brainchild of Jools Holland (who recently spoke out for the first time about his prostate cancer diagnosis), alongside Prostate Cancer UK founder, Professor Jonathan Waxman.
Thankfully I was successfully treated for prostate cancer, but if more people were aware of their risk and caught the disease early, then more lives would be saved. If Raise the Roof was able to achieve this and save one mans life it would be the best thing ever that would come out of this. Jools Holland
Raise the Roof is supporting Prostate Cancer UK the largest charity in the UK dedicated to fighting prostate cancer.
As the most common cancer in men, 1 in 8 will get prostate cancer in their lifetime. The good news is prostate cancer is very treatable if caught early. But Covid-19 has meant thousands of men more men than ever before have gone undiagnosed.
Without a screening programme and money to fund the research to get there, too many men will still be diagnosed too late. Thats why Jools Holland and Prostate Cancer UK are uniting for one night only to stop lives being rocked by prostate cancer.
