Volunteer for us in Manchester

Monday, February 06, 2012

Bowel Cancer UK are currently looking at recruiting volunteers in the Greater Manchester area to help raise awareness of the disease.

If you are successsful you will also attend information stands alongside the Greater Manchester Bowel Screening Team in a wide variety of venues from shopping centres to local hospitals.

Caroline Pundyke, Health Promotion Officer for the North of England says: ' Raising awareness of bowel cancer is vital, as if caught early, it is highly treatable. Therefore educating people about the symptoms is really important. This is a great opportunity for volunteers to make a real difference to people's lives and gain experience working with a health charity.'

The first day of training will be taking place on Thursday 23rd February in central Manchester. If you would like to get involved or have any questions then call us on 0207 381 9711 or email volunteer@bowelcanceruk.org.uk
