Lower the age for bowel screening in England.
Bowel cancer is the UK’s second biggest cancer killer.
Both men and women are susceptible to bowel cancer.
This is due to lack of awareness about the symptoms - and while they aren’t always obvious, a simple test can tell all.
Any person, any age could take the test. Bowel Cancer West firmly believe the current test age should be lowered to at least 50 and we are campaigning to do so.
