Bowel Cancer UK

Bowel Cancer UK

Bowel Cancer UK is the UK’s leading bowel cancer charity. We’re determined to save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer. Every 15 minutes someone is diagnosed, that’s almost 42,000 people every year. Bowel cancer is the UK’s second biggest cancer killer with more than 16,000 people in the UK dying every year. However it shouldn’t be because it is treatable and curable especially if diagnosed early.  Nearly everyone survives bowel cancer if diagnosed at the earliest stage. However this drops significantly as it develops. Early diagnosis really does save lives.

Bowel Cancer UK support and fund targeted research, provide expert information and support to patients and their families, educate the public and professionals about the disease and campaign for early diagnosis and access to best treatment and care. Our vision is a future where nobody dies of bowel cancer but we can’t achieve this alone.  Support us. Take action. Because you can help save lives. Today.
