SIR – Bowel cancer screening is available free to over-60s in England, but currently only around half of those eligible are taking part.
As part of its Be Loud Be Clear Awareness Week (January 24-30), Beating Bowel Cancer is launching the 1,2,3 Campaign to encourage people to take up screening. Find out more about bowel cancer screening at bowel123.co.uk.
