Bowel Cancer Screening Saves Lives....

but, remarkably, only 55% of people offered it in Somerset take up the offer of the test.

So, let’s do what we can to spread the word.  If you know of anyone who has been offered the test and hasn’t sent off their samples, see what you can do to persuade them to do it.  You would be doing them a favour, and could be saving their lives
