Gonville Library is proud to present the next Tea and Topics talk with Judy McIntyre, the bowel screening coordinator with Whanganui District Health Board.
Free screening is now available in Whanganui and an important step forward in the early detection and treatment of bowel cancer.
Judy will explain the importance of the test, what the test involves and how easy it is to do from the privacy of your own home.
The National Bowel Screening Programme is a free programme to help detect bowel cancer.
It is being offered every two years to people aged 60 to 74 years old who are eligible for publicly funded healthcare.
