We're so grateful to all the MPs who signed this letter to call on the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care to commit to lowering the #BowelCancer screening sensitivity threshold. Bowel cancer screening helps spot the disease before symptoms start, when it's more treatable. By improving the sensitivity threshold thousands of lives could be saved.
The latest report from @bowelcanceruk shows that progress on early diagnosis of the disease has stagnated. That's why I, alongside other MPs, have sent a letter to the Secretary of State for Health, asking him to commit to optimising the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme.

If you get a bowel screening kit please use it, it just could save your life. Early detection is treatable and curable.
We welcome the announcement by @NHSEngland that they’re expanding their #BowelCancer screening programme to those aged 50 in England 👏 Our ambassador, @DrAnishaPatel1, joined the team at @BBC breakfast this morning to discuss why these at-home tests are so important. Bowel cancer is treatable and curable when spotted early. Screening plays a vital role in improving these cancer outcomes. Read more about this announcement: bit.ly/3WgDm9D

There’s no new doorstep photo this year, just another recycled one. Childhood Cancer is immensely underfunded and has been for years. Treatments for the deceased and the surviving children, harsh and savage. There needs to be a clear mandate to rectify this #CCAM 🎗️

You couldn’t make this up. I’d just finished editing a video script about local recurrence. It was the night before the launch of my memoir‘Under The Knife’ I got out of the shower and saw a pink nodule on my chest, above the old scar. This is what it looked like…

One year ago, Mum had her arm amputated for a metastatic osteosarcoma. She had a lump on the back of her arm, then the front. I had no idea it was a sarcoma until she broke it. It’s #SarcomaAwarenessMonth Make sure you know the signs - see ⁦@Sarcoma_UK⁩ ⁦@BCRT⁩
