Bridgnorth Lions Club organises Prostate & Health Testing events....
aimed at raising awareness about prostate cancer and providing prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood tests to men over the age of 40.
The Bridgnorth Lions Club works in partnership with a National Prostate Cancer Charity to provide the testing services and the event is staffed by a team of enthusiastic professional Phlebotomists to take the blood samples.
In 2024 we introduced a eight other essential tests including checking for High Cholesterol, Diabeties, Liver Function and Low B12, some of which which can be present without symptoms, can only be detected by a blood test and both can be life changing!
Prostate cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in men, and early detection is key to successful treatment. PSA testing is a simple blood test that measures the levels of PSA in the blood. Elevated levels of PSA can be an indicator of prostate cancer, and further testing may be necessary to confirm a diagnosis.
Our Testing Events have ended for this year, however you can still order a Home Testing Kit.

The Bridgnorth Lions Club works in partnership with local healthcare providers to provide the testing services, and the event is usually staffed by volunteer healthcare professionals.
The Testing events have become an important part of community outreach efforts and helped to raise awareness about the importance of early detection.
