The first NHS national bowel cancer public awareness campaign has launched in England. Campaign advertisements will run for nine weeks and feature on TV, radio and other national media until the end of March.
The Department of Health has developed a campaign factsheet to support pharmacists. Pharmacies can also help promote the ‘Be Clear on Cancer’ campaign by displaying posters and leaflets about bowel cancer.
These can be ordered at www.orderline.dh.gov.uk or by phoning 0300 123 1002. RPS guidance can also support you in reviewing your knowledge of bowel cancer so you are fully up-to-date.
The RPS is recruiting community pharmacies to take part in a GB-wide clinical audit of bowel cancer 5-19 March. Interested parties can register at http://www.rpharms.com/what-s-happening-/news_show.asp?id=413.
