FOPS News

The FOPS at Chorleywood Village Day 2023 photographThe FOPS had a stand at the Chorleywood Village Day. Being 4 hours long, this is much smaller than the two day Rickmansworth River Festival we did a couple of months back, but we still spoke with many people about prostate awareness, and some new members joined. Thanks to our volunteers who helped out with talking to the visitors. Thanks also to Phil Williams, who paid for our pitch. It was another event which was good fun for those taking part.
