Our PSA Testing Record Broken at Nantwich Saturday 13th April

Our PSA Testing Record Broken at Nantwich Saturday 13th April

Tuesday, 16th April 2019

During a hugely successful morning at our PSA Testing event in Nantwich Civic Hall last Saturday 13th April, our team tested 494 men between 9:30am and 1:00pm. This was even bigger than the previous record number tested at Burnley Football Club on 13th February 2016.

The blood samples taken from the men were couriered to The Doctors Laboratory laboratory in Salford where the PSA level in each sample is measured and sent to the Graham Fulford Charitable Trust in Warwick. Here, the results are correlated with the questionnaire each man has completed and letters detailing the final results are expected to be posted to each man within 7-10 days.

Chairman, David Laundon said "Our blood sampling team were kept very busy and dealt with the pressure very well indeed".
