The sun was a little shy and there were showers but the bands played and the people danced and just loved the 6th Test Fest. This much loved music festival in Taunton truly had the support of local businesses, performers and families.
The Test Fest is the only Testicular Cancer Awareness Music Festival in the World!
We use the love of music and festivals to send our awareness messages out there and for those who have had the disease an opportunity to celebrate survival and also help spread the word too. We have created this video to encourage others to come along and enjoy the festival with us.
The aim of the Test Fest is to encourage people to attend from all over the South West. To watch bands, eat, drink, catch up with friends and have a good time. The team in the background talk about the importance of self-checking, sell merchandise with the charity’s messages on them.
If you find something strange, don't stew over whether it's serious or not. Go straight to your GP! This will give you the best chance of early diagnosis in the rare event of it being testicular cancer.
We are the only testicular cancer charity in the South-West, providing Support, Raising Awareness and Celebrating Survival.
It’s in the Bag is run by a group of testicular cancer survivors with support from specialist NHS staff. We have three simple aims:
Amanda tells us all about Tom, her son who died of Testicular Cancer. As we know Testicular Cancer is 96% curable, but there are those who do not do so well. This is sometimes due to late diagnosis, but also due to aggressive disease. Amanda and her family benefited from the help given by It’s in the Bag and want to give back.
