Cancer Screening
Don't ignore your invite or miss the chance for a free test
Bowel Cancer
Are you aged over 60
If so, you will be sent a free kit that can detect the early signs of bowel cancer. Bowel cancer is a very common cancer and can be easily detected. The earlier it’s found, the more effectively it can be treated, so don’t ignore the package in the post, do the test and send it back!
You can request a free kit by calling freephone: 0800 707 6060.
