Prostate Cancer Awareness Day

Prostate Cancer Awareness Day

Lee Jackson10 Dec 2024 - 11:47

Saturday December 14th 2024

The Supporters Trust have organised a prostate cancer awareness day at our next home game on December 14th and we are very pleased to be able to welcome Jim Burton and his team to Claines Lane.

Jim and his team will be collecting to raise funds for his Prostate Screening Fund (PSF) that enables men to have the opportunity to have a FREE PSA Homekit Test.

Jim and his helpers will have a stand inside the clubhouse where you can chat to Jim, pick up information leaflets and take part in a fundraising tombola. You will also have an opportunity to pick up a card with a code to order your own FREE PSA Homekit Test. The work that Jim and others do is vitally important. Every penny that Jim raises goes towards providing Free PSA Homekits and each test could save a life.
