The Graham Fulford Charitable Trust

Supporting health testing for early diagnosis


An important message from TV presenter and prostate cancer survivor, Nick Owen.

What we do

Health Testing

Together with our partners, we offer testing all over the UK for conditions such as prostate cancer, diabetes and menopause as well as other general health tests through public testing events and home testing kits.

Research

We are undertaking a major research study into PSA and Free to Total scoring, working alongside the University of Manchester with the aim of persuading the health authorities to implement a National Prostate Cancer Screening Programme for all men in the UK.

Awareness

We are always striving to spread awareness about the importance of early diagnosis and how it can be life saving. Keep up with our news at the charity as well as industry-wide updates through our blog and social media platforms.

Everything you need to know about prostate cancer:

Knowledge Empowers is an informative booklet covering everything there is to know about prostate cancer and available treatments. Roger Bacon who is a Trustee of PCaSO a prostate support group based in the South of England, led this project, this is a valuable resource as the booklet was written by prostate cancer patients, for current patients.

Please contact us on 01926 419959 or info@tgfct.org.uk to receive a free paper copy of this booklet, or view online using the link below.

Thank you to PCaSO for the use of this information.

I am writing to thank you from the bottom of my heart for providing this amazing service, and to let you know that without it, I would still be oblivious to the prostate cancer that I have been diagnosed with.
