I worked in the Nuclear Power industry as a mechanical engineer from 1964 to 1993, firstly at Whetstone, Leics, and from 1986 at Knutsford, Cheshire. I took early retirement in 1993 due to a major reorganisation in the nuclear industry. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in late 2000, and subsequently underwent radiotherapy treatment at Christies Hospital in Manchester in early 2001. Around that time I joined the North of England Prostate Cancer Support group based in Cheadle Hulme and gained so much assurance about my condition and optimism for the future from their meetings. I relocated back to Leicestershire in 2004 with my wife, Sheila, to be nearer our families, and became a member of PCSA (CE). I became a trustee and group Treasurer in 2005, and have played an active role in setting up our Awareness Events. I became Chairman of the Association in 2014. Sheila and I are active supporters of Guide Dogs For the Blind, initially as Puppy Walkers, and currently as Boarders.

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.
