Tackling Bowel Cancer Head On: Launching October 2007.

We are thrilled to launch a new campaign raising awareness of bowel cancer and haemorrhoid symptoms amongst men while ensuring GPs and GP Practices are up to date with the latest information on the treatment of both.

Bleeding from the bottom is a common complaint, but it shouldn’t be ignored. Patients may simply have haemorrhoids, however it can sometimes be a sign of bowel cancer.

There are innovative treatments for both haemorrhoids and bowel cancer, and we are delighted to bring you up-to-date information on these.

For information on bowel cancer, please explore this website, in particular the medical advice section.

For further information about Piles or Haemorrhoids, please call the PPH helpline on 0800 028 2231 or visit www.allaboutpph.co.uk

We would also love you to get involved with our campaign by downloading our ads as posters for your surgery. To do so, please click here. We’d also encourage you to order information leaflets for your patients and posters to put up in your surgery by emailing us and stating how many you would like to receive. Alternatively you can call us on 020 8892 5256.

We are able to implement this national campaign thanks to support from Ethicon Endo-Surgery, a division of Johnson & Johnson Medical Ltd.
