What the petition asks
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK.
This simple blood test that I am petitioning for could save thousands if not millions of life’s. Unfortunately it was found to late in my Grandfather. And I want to change this.

This simple blood test is not routinely offered on the NHS, and I want change to this as it could save millions of life’s just through one blood test. Men over the age of 50 are at most risk so by routinely having a PSA test, could again, save millions.
