September is here and we see the third March for Men with Kev setting off from Petersfield Square. The walk is all in aid of raising funds, but more importantly raising awareness in men to get themselves tested for prostate cancer.
It is the harsh reality that 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed in their lifetime. Early action saves lives. The tireless campaigning from local man Kevan Birkett continues in his memory.
Crows better watch out because the Clanfield centre is organising a scarecrow festival this October. Centre Manager Tasha and Assistant Manager Molly told Phill Humphries how it would all work.
