Bowel Cancer Guernsey

Bowel Cancer Guernsey Don't sit on it, Sort it! The committee organises a series of events each year to raise funds for the Charity and to raise awareness of bowel cancer.

The Guernsey Bowel Cancer Awareness Charity was formed in 2002 and is registered with the Guernsey Association of Charities and has a management committee of seven trustees. Money raised is spent both on specialised equipment and educational initiatives – see our website for more details (www.guernseybowelcancer.org.gg). Our role is to actively promote the knowledge and understanding of bowel canc

er within the Bailiwick and to encourage people to realise that bowel cancer is preventable and treatable if caught early enough. Patron – The Bailiff of Guernsey, Sir Rowland

How You Can Help:

There are many ways you can help – we are always in needs of funds for our next project so you could:

Take part in our annual Loud Tie Day each January – this year held on Friday 27th January 2012. We ask that everyone in your workplace, school or business wears their loudest tie or scarf and gives a donation to pay for the privilege! Or why not organise a Dress down day for us? Choose the GBCAC as your Charity for the next year

Organise a fund raising event for us – how about including ties or bottoms as your theme! Nominate the GBCAC as your charity when taking part in a fun run, marathon or similar challenge

Help us when organising our next event – could you set up the raffle or help us man the bar? Sell tickets for our next event or take a table at our Quiz night

Living on an island, we’re lucky to have the sea right on our doorstep. 🌊

This summer, why not make the most of it? Paddleboarding, kayaking or even a gentle dip all count as moving your body.

Staying active supports your overall health and can help reduce the risk of bowel cancer. 💛

BBQ season is here, but what we pop on the grill isn’t always the best choice for our bowel health.

With a few simple swaps, you can still enjoy this summer favourite while being a little kinder to your gut. 💛

Symptoms matter - and screening matters too.

Need an easy high-fibre meal idea?

Try a veggie chilli with beans, lentils and brown rice, or a jacket potato with baked beans and salad.

Feeling unusually tired all the time?

Extreme tiredness can be one of the signs of bowel cancer, especially when it comes with other symptoms.

If something doesn’t feel right, speak to your GP.
