It was not long before the men that had booked for their test began to arrive and sign in.

Three stations were set up and manned by the volunteers at the Graham Fulford Charitable Trust to take blood samples.

Each man was well taken care of in a speedy

but professional process.

There was time for each man to ask questions and ensure they understood what would happen to their blood test.

Each man registered on arrival and completed a short form whilst they waited for their blood sample to be taken.

Black men have a three times higher risk of getting prostate cancer than white men of the same age, but the risk for

Asian and Chinese men is lower.

Despite the seriousness of the test, most men arrived with a smile on their face and had the opportunity to chat to our volunteers and also seek out information from our stand.

168 men were tested at this event.

153 were notified as 'Green' (no action needed)

5 tests were indicated as 'Amber'

and 10 were notified as 'Red'.
