Let’s talk sh!t
Bowel cancer is Australia’s second deadliest cancer, but if detected early it can be successfully treated in over 90% of cases.
Focusing on Australians aged 45-74 living regionally and remote, the goal of the Talking Sh!t campaign is to encourage them to take the National Bowel Cancer Screening test as soon as it arrives in the mail. If they are aged 45-49, we encourage them to opt in to the NBCSP and do their free life-saving test kit.
This page is designed as a resource to help you ‘talk sh!t’ with your patients so that Australian lives can be saved.
