| A simple way to help show your support this June is to wear a Bowel Cancer Awareness Ribbon or even better, grab yourself a display box of 30 to sell to friends and colleagues . Alternatively, send, dedicate, or buy a virtual ribbon which will be displayed on our virtual apple tree. |
|
| It is important to recognise possible bowel cancer symptoms and have them investigated if they persist. Don't delay in talking to your GP. |
|
| While lowering screening guidelines will be one step forward for people aged 45 and older, it doesn’t address the rise in young-onset bowel cancer, which is the deadliest cancer for Australians aged 25-44. A 45-year-old today has the same bowel cancer risk a 50-year-old had 10 years ago. Knowing your family history is also vital. You may need to begin screening even earlier depending on your individual circumstances. |
|
| Now is the time to get creative and start planning your fundraiser – the options are endless, and ideas are only limited by your imagination! Why not take your fundraising online? Create a page, invite friends and family to support you, share your progress. Raise over $200 and you’ll not only be the apple of our eye, we’ll send a FREE pair of bum shorts to help you stand out from the crowd. |
