If something in your body doesn’t feel right, don’t carry the worry of cancer with you. Tests could put your mind at rest. Until you find out, you can’t rule it out. Contact your GP practice. https://t.co/yAPEYFMq69

When asked what would prevent them from taking a bowel cancer screening test, 1 in 5 said they would be embarrassed, too disgusted, or wouldn't want to look at their poo.

Your next poo could be life saving. Talk to your GP today.
