A silver lining of the "Covid Cloud" has been the opportunity it's given us to launch the above which is a vision we've had for the last 3 years. The system is a mirror image of our traditional events testing system with all results being over viewed by a panel of urologists with the same comprehensive result reporting system as before.

Following a 100 men pilot in June we've already received well over 1400 orders to date and have already found well over 50 reds in the first batches of returned samples. Whilst the majority of these will be for something other than prostate cancer some will be thereby enabling men to be diagnosed who otherwise may well have been missed . Whilst like everything in life there have been a few teething problems to overcome we've received some great feedback including the two testimonials shown below:

To All,

What a terrific thing that you do. Kit arrived very quickly and results the day after posting my blood sample!

Thank you. I shall advocate this Charity to all my male friends.

Such a relief having had no joy with requests for a PSA test through NHS.

Best regards

Hi Susan,

I compliment GFCT on the excellent arrangements it has in place for home testing.

My kit was ordered on 11^th August – it arrived on 14^th August.

I sent my sample on 18^th August and I received the result this afternoon by e-mail.

Thank you for assisting me with this and I send my congratulations to those responsible for all the arrangements.

With kind regards

As a small charity suffering  financially like all Charities during the Covid pandemic we don't have a huge marketing budget so PLEASE spread the word to all men you know over 40 who might like to take advantage of this facility, particularly whilst large scale testing events are having to be suspended.
