Bowel Cancer Screening
If you are aged 60-69 in England, Wales and parts of Northern Ireland,
or 50-74 in Scotland and you are registered with a GP, you are eligible for bowel cancer screening.
Bowel cancer screening aims to diagnose and treat people before symptoms appear. The earlier bowel cancer is detected, the easier it is to treat.
