“It’s not every day an envelope posted through your front door could save your life”.

 The home test kit collects a small sample of poo which is posted back to a lab to be checked for tiny amounts of blood.  Blood can be a sign of polyps - growths in the bowel which can turn to cancer - or could already be a sign of cancer itself.

 As part of the national bowel cancer screening programme, every person aged 50 to 74 is sent a test every two years.

 For more information about bowel cancer screening, visit www.nhs.uk/conditions/bowel-cancer-screening/ or call the national helpline on 0800 707 60 60.  To watch the video, visit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVu_sK5Btfk
