Bowel Cancer Awareness Month

April is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month...#PassItOn!

They say knowledge is power, so this April we’re asking everyone to share important information about bowel cancer. Will you help #PassItOn?

You can use our toolkit to pass on information about symptoms, print posters to display in your loos at work, or make a donation to support our work.

The earlier bowel cancer is spotted, the more treatable it’s likely to be. In fact, more than 9 in 10 people survive bowel cancer when it is diagnosed at the earliest stage. So please, #PassItOn.

How you can get involved
