Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in Scotland. Over 4,000 people in Scotland get bowel cancer every year.

If you live in Scotland and are aged 50-74 years old you will be invited to complete the bowel screening test if you haven’t been screened in the last 2 years.

If you’re 75 or over you will no longer be invited to take a bowel screening test, but, you can still take a bowel screening test every 2 years. You will need to request a new test kit each time as the Scottish Bowel Screening Centre will not send you one.

For more information on bowel screening, please see the attached link.

Bowel screening is offered to men and women aged 50 to 74 in Scotland to help find and treat bowel cancer early. Find out how to take the test and what your test results mean.
