 | Acclaimed actress Miriam Margolyes OBE continues as the voice of Bowel Cancer Australia’s award winning 'Give a $#*! About Your Bowel' advertising campaign.
The third instalment of this high impact series focuses on 'cancer' with a clear message that when caught early almost 99% of bowel cancer cases can be successfully treated.
“I’m thrilled to continue being the voice Bowel Cancer Australia’s talking bowel again this year. I’m not one to shy away from perceived 'taboo' topics and quite frankly, we need people to give a shit about bowel cancer,” said Miriam Margolyes.
The 2023 campaign completes the series featuring a computer-generated model with a 'talking bowel' and follows on from the previous 'bowel' and 'polyp' focuses. |

Purchase merchandise such as bum shorts, caps, wristbands or t-shirts to make sure you stand out from the crowd. |

Alternatively, buy, send or dedicate a virtual ribbon which will be displayed on our virtual apple tree.
