Prostate cancer tests will be available at Lancaster City’s Giant Axe in the latest Dollies in the Community project.
The checks, which involve a pain-free blood test, will be offered at the club’s stadium on Saturday May 13 between 11am and 3pm.
The club are supporting the Barry Kilby Trust by carrying out these tests.
Former Burnley chairman Barry Kilby set up the trust in 2014 after being diagnosed with prostate cancer. The trust offers testing kits to football clubs and online home testing kits for prostate cancer.
A total of 80 test places have been allocated to the Giant Axe. The cost of the test is £25 and supporters are asked to donate £10 which goes towards paying the cost.

Club director and the Head of Dollies in the Community, Dave Evans, said on the club’s website: “Here at the club, we know how important it is for people to check themselves, get tested and set aside any fears they have to look after themselves.
“If having this testing facility here helps with that, then that’s just fantastic. Cancer in all its forms can go unnoticed for weeks, months, even years in some cases and prostate cancer is so much easier to treat if men catch it early.”
Places for tests must be booked in advance, and this can be done by following this link.
