We’re speaking with #OneCancerVoice in signing this joint letter to The Times with 50+ colleagues across the cancer community. We welcome and support @wesstreeting's cancer plan. But to be successful, it’s vital that this commitment is backed by the investment needed.

Delighted to see the bowel cancer screening programme extended to 50 year olds in England today. Early diagnosis saves lives and the screening programme can help detect cancers before symptoms develop. Do your test when it arrives! @DrAnishaPatel1 @bowelcanceruk @NHSEngland.

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

After getting to speak to @BBCWalesNews about the great news that bowel screening is expanding in Wales, the first bit of feedback from my little sister:. "How many times did you say poo on live TV?". As many times as it takes! . @bowelcanceruk
