Book your place at our awareness morning in Cumbernauld
We’re inviting North Lanarkshire residents to a free bowel cancer awareness event on Thursday 25 April at Cornerstone House Centre from 10am – 12.30pm.
The event marks Bowel Cancer Awareness Month this April.
Along with talks on how to lower guests risk of developing bowel cancer, symptoms to look out for and presentations by patients who have been diagnosed with the disease, guests can also visit a health market. There will be stalls and information booths from a range of local health and social care providers, as well as complimentary tea and coffee, and guests will also be entered into a free prize draw.
Ross Lamb, Health and Promotion Training Officer in Scotland for Bowel Cancer UK, said: “We’re really looking forward to meeting and working with the people of Cumbernauld, Kilsyth and Northern Corridor to raise awareness of bowel cancer, at what looks set to be a fantastic and informative morning.
“Early diagnosis really does save lives, that’s why events like this are so important. By raising awareness of bowel cancer, symptoms to look out for and encouraging people to take part in the screening programme, we can work together to build a future where nobody dies of the disease.”
Our Bowel Cancer Awareness Event will take place on Thursday 25 April between 10.00am – 12.30pm at Cornerstone House Centre, 1 Esk Walk, Town Centre, Cumbernauld, G67 1BZ.
