Did you know that, on average, 150 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every day in the UK? That’s why Wimborne and Ferndown Lions Club is running a free prostate cancer screening event on Saturday, 20th September 2025, at the Barrington Centre, Penny’s Walk, Ferndown BH22 9TH.
1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime, making it the most common cancer in men. Because the disease often develops without symptoms, early detection can make a life-changing difference. A quick and simple PSA blood test checks for the early warning signs of prostate cancer, significantly improving outcomes if treatment is needed.
If you are aged 50 or over, or 45+ with a family history of the disease, you are encouraged to take advantage of this free test.
Appointments are essential. To secure your free test or for more information, please:
