IT’S TIME TO GIVE TWO SH!TS

ABOUT BOWEL CANCER

Bowel cancer is Australia's second biggest cancer killer.

It can develop without symptoms, but if detected early it can be successfully treated. If you are aged 50 – 74, you will receive a free bowel screening kit in the mail every two years.

“Please do this test as soon as it arrives. It might just save your life.”

Merv Hughes,
Talking Sh!t Ambassador.
