Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, April 2025

Know the symptoms of bowel cancer: bleeding from your bottom; blood in your poo; a change in how often you poo, or regularly having diarrhoea or constipation; losing weight but you're not sure why; feeling very tired all the time but you're not sure why; a pain or lump in your tummy; if you have any of these symptoms, it's important to ask your GP for an at-home test as soon as you can.

This #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth, we’re supporting Bowel Cancer UK’s #PassItOn campaign by sharing the symptoms.

The earlier bowel cancer is spotted, the more treatable it’s likely to be.

Learn more about the possible symptoms of the disease.
