On Tuesday 20 June, Australians from around the country impacted by early-onset bowel cancer will visit Parliament House to participate in our inaugural Call on Canberra to raise awareness and advocate for important policy change.
Members and Senators will hear first-hand from patients and loved ones. Latest Australian research reveals younger people with bowel cancer symptoms find self-advocating to be the only consistent and reliable resource for overcoming age bias, barriers to diagnosis, and optimising outcomes for the deadliest cancer in those aged 25-44.
Given the rising rates of early-onset bowel cancer our priorities of - - greater awareness (especially among primary healthcare)
- rapid referrals
- lowering the screening start age
- improved pathways
- further research that has the potential to improve survival and/or build a path towards a cure
are also national priorities. |
