June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month 🍎

For many in our community, Bowel Cancer Awareness month isn’t just about awareness - it’s more personal. Whether you’re living with bowel cancer, supporting someone, or focusing on prevention, it matters.

 

Bowel cancer often develops without early symptoms, but when found in the earliest stage, over 90% of cases can be successfully treated.

 

If screening is relevant for you, it’s a small step that can make a big difference. If not, raising awareness or sharing trusted information could help someone else.

 

You can learn more about bowel cancer, including signs, symptoms, and screening here, or explore more information in the detailed guide, Understanding Bowel Cancer. The National Bowel Cancer Screening Program is a great place to start too. 

 

Whether it’s awareness, screening, or support - what does this month mean to you?
