Have you had your NHS bowel cancer screening test yet?

If you’re between 50-74 and registered with a GP you will automatically be sent your screening kit through the post every two years.

It’s easy to do, and you can complete it yourself in the privacy of your own bathroom. If you think you’re eligible and haven’t had a kit sent to you, you can call the bowel cancer screening helpline on 0800 707 6060.

Bowel cancer screening finds bowel cancer before you’ve noticed any symptoms, which means it’s much easier to treat.

Do you know the signs and symptoms of bowel cancer?

If you’ve had blood in your poo or bleeding from your bottom, a change in bowel habits, unexplained weight loss or a pain or lump in your tummy, and these symptoms last three weeks or more, it’s time to get them checked out.

Chances are it’s not bowel cancer, but if it is, finding it early can make it much more treatable.
