Last night, in partnership with Shropshire prostate cancer support group, we hosted a PSA screening event and what a turnout it was! 👏

An incredible 260 men came along for a simple blood test that could help save their lives. It was fantastic to see people from across the county coming together to prioritise their health and wellbeing.

Thank you to everyone who attended. We hope you all receive reassuring green results. 💚

If you couldn’t make it, you can still:
➡️ Find details of upcoming PSA screening events: https://www.mypsatests.org.uk/Events/
➡️ Order a home test: https://www.mypsatests.org.uk/Orders/

We’d also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our brilliant volunteers, phlebotomists and everyone involved in making the evening such a success.

💡 Prostate cancer is the UK’s most common cancer, with more than 64,000 men diagnosed each year. Let’s keep raising awareness, encouraging conversations and supporting one another.

👨‍⚕ If something doesn’t feel right or you have any concerns, please speak to a healthcare professional.
