Bowel Cancer Screening

Bowel Cancer Screening

Bowel cancer screening is a test you do at home that checks for signs of bowel cancer. It's offered to everyone aged 50 to 74 every two years. Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancer, if we can help find cancer early, before you have any symptoms, it may mean it is easier to treat.

Bowel cancer screening uses a test called a faecal immunochemical test (FIT) to look for blood in a sample of your poo. This could be a sign of bowel cancer. You collect the sample at home and send it by post to be tested.

The Harrogate Leeds and York Bowel Screening Programme have created this video to help patients understand why it is so important.
