Early detection of any cancer is vital
We are always seeking ways to raise awarensss of the risks of prostate cancer among men of all ages.
We strongly support the National Federation of Prostate Cancer Support Groups (aka Tackle Prostate Cancer) in its campaign to encourage men to know their PSA, or "Get a score on the board".
Men who are at greater risk of prostate cancer are the most likely to benefit, for example, if you are an African Caribbean man you are three times more likely to develop prostate cancer than white men in the UK. If you have a family history of the disease, that is if your father or brother have had prostate cancer, you should also thing about being tested. You can talk to your GP about having regular PSA tests as it may be useful to "Get a score on the board" so that any changes can be tracked. There is no screening prgramme in the UK, but all men over 50 are entitled to a PSA test on request.

We have three more PSA testing events planned for the Autumn. The first of these events will be held on Saturday 16th September at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Centre, in Rugby. Three weeks later on 7th October we will be at the Lutterworth Club in Lutterworth. Our final event of 2023 will be on Saturday 21st October at Christ The King Parish Centre, Coundon, Coventry. For all these events we will continue to use the Graham Fulford online booking system. As a result our events run smoothly with minimal queuing and adequate social distancing. See Coming Events for more detail.
