Did you watch His Majesty The King The Royal Family talk about the importance of keeping up with cancer screening as part of Stand Up To Cancer UK ?

Is your bowel cancer screening kit sitting at the back of a drawer?

If you’re 50 to 74, you should have received your bowel cancer screening kit through the post. That’s because the NHS automatically sends a kit every two years to people in that age group.

Just nine out of every 5,000 people who use their test kit turn out to have cancer. But if it’s spotted early, the chances of recovering from bowel cancer are higher. The test can be done in the comfort of your home and only needs a tiny sample of poo to test for signs of cancer.

So, keep an eye out for your bowel cancer testing kit in the post, or dig out the one that you put away in that drawer and forgot about. And then put it by the loo. Don’t put it off.

Last week, His Majesty The King The Royal Family talked about the importance of taking part in cancer screening as part of Stand Up To Cancer UK

Breast screening can detect cancer before you can feel it. Or more likely, put your mind at rest.

So when you’re invited, save the date. It could save your life.
