Description
We are a community of cancer survivors, supporters, experts and advocates united to beat bowel cancer.
Bowel Cancer New Zealand is the country’s leading bowel cancer charity – founded by bowel cancer survivors and now powered by tens of thousands of supporters, patients, whānau, and health professionals.
Bowel cancer is common. It’s the second leading cause of cancer death in Aotearoa, but it doesn’t need to be. When caught early, it’s highly treatable. That’s why we’re here – to raise awareness, champion earlier diagnosis, provide support through every stage of the disease, and drive change that saves lives.
