A MEN'S health awareness leaflet is being launched to coincide with Father's Day to reduce cancer cases across Worcestershire.

Cancer kills more men than any other disease so the World Cancer Research Fund has published One Careful Owner.

It explains the steps men can take to reduce cancer risk, including tips on achieving a healthier diet, taking more exercise and reducing alcohol intake.

"Studies of men and women show that men pay less attention to health issues, they are less likely to talk to their GP about symptoms and are less likely to eat a healthy diet," said Sue Wilkinson, head of nutrition services at WCRF UK.
