On Monday 24 June, Australians from around the country impacted by early-onset bowel cancer will visit Parliament House to participate in 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 national advocacy priorities are - - 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.
Find out how you can become a Champion For Change and help support Bowel Cancer Australia's advocacy efforts.
You don’t need to be in Canberra for your representatives to hear your voice. Social media engagement creates broader awareness and helps to mobilise further support. Amplify our impact by using the hashtag #CallOnCanberra when posting on your own social channels.
