Bowel cancer is 90% curable if caught early, so do our quick symptoms checker today! Check the boxes that apply, send them to yourself, then show the email to your GP.

Symptoms can come and go, so don’t wait if you have any bowel concerns, no matter what age you are.

Take Action Now

Take action this month and email or write to your local MPs, our Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and the Health Minister Dr Shane Reti.

Urge them to ACT NOW and save lives! To do what the government promised – to lower the bowel screening age and fund new bowel cancer drugs.
