It’s .

A lot of people quietly struggle with the NHS bowel cancer screening test. It’s not something anyone really wants to talk about — but it’s incredibly important.

I’ve put together a short video showing the simple, more hygienic way to complete the test at home using the hystool bag. It’s designed to make things easier, especially for anyone who finds the process awkward or difficult.

If you’ve been putting it off, this might help.

My friend Paul Chalky Castledine is the new star of this effort from the NHS. They still suggest using a plastic tub... that you have to retrieve after use ... then empty / clean and dispose of. Some NHS areas already using our bags shame they didn't include them here.

We’re back to bust more myths surrounding bowel cancer!

Bowel screening helps spot bowel cancer before symptoms start, when it’s more treatable.

A screening kit will be sent to you in the post if you’re within the age range for screening and are registered with a GP. If you have symptoms, you don’t need to wait for a screening test. Ask your GP for an at-home test.

We understand for some people when you receive your screening test it might feel overwhelming, and you might not know where to start. We’re here to help. Find out more: https://bit.ly/2YYuVVv

April is Bowel Cancer Awareness month and it still amazes me that people don't do the test because of what is involved. That inspired me to invent HyStool. Makes doing the test as simple as possible... and once you are finished safely flush it all away.

No Excuses Now ! Just get it done.

HyStool® - Stool sample collection device

HyStool® - stool sample collection device - was invented in Scotland in 2015 by Andrew Fraser to provide a simple and hygienic way to collect a faecal stool sample for the NHS bowel cancer screening programme.

HyStool® can be used in any medical screening process that requires the collection of a stool sample such as bowel cancer, crohn’s or colitis and can be used as part of a testing kit, at home, by hospitals, or in health clinics.

HyStool® is made from PVA that is environmentally friendly and dissolves 100% in cold water. HyStool® is easy to use and is as hygienic as possible. Simply attach to a toilet seat or the rim of the toilet bowl. There is no need to reach inside a potentially contaminated toilet bowl to fit it.

HyStool® is strong enough to hold over 2kg in weight without bursting. Once the stool sample has been taken then HyStool® can simply and safely be flushed away.
