LUCTONIANS’ forwards coach Andy Douthwaite is fighting prostate cancer - and wants to help other men win the battle.

“I won’t pretend that diagnosis and the subsequent course of treatment has been pleasant and without side effects, but I consider the alternative – death –less desirable.”

Men can have free prostate specific antigen tests, which take just five minutes, at Luctonians RFC on Saturday from 11am.

Men over the age of 40 should book their place by e-mailing: norm@luctonians.co.uk
