Hello, Sidney… ready to do your bowel screening? 👻

If you’re 45–74 (or care about someone who is), screening is one of the best ways to protect yourself against bowel cancer – 9 out of 10 cases are successfully treated if caught early.

Even if your poo seems totally 'normal', a free and simple test can save your life.

✅ Ages 50–74: a free test is mailed every 2 years (just make sure Medicare has your current address 📬).
✅ Ages 45–49: order your first free test now—after that, they’ll come automatically.

It’s cleaner, easier, and way less scary than you think. Don’t ghost your health—complete your kit today. 🖤

💜 A Cervical Screening Test every 5 years is one of the best ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer.

It’s quick, simple and can detect early changes before they become serious.

If you're aged 25–74 and have a cervix, make sure you're up to date.

To check if you’re due, speak to your healthcare provider or visit the National Cancer Screening Register.

One test. Five years of peace of mind. 💜

A little reminder for the ladies: your health matters too. 🥰 💕

We often spend so much time looking after others—our partner, our kids, our parents and our friends, that we forget about our own needs.

Research tells us that prioritising taking care of others is actually the number one barrier to women being proactive about their health.

Filling other people's cup is lovely—but it's important to fill your own and look after YOU too.

So let this be your nudge to:
> Have some 'me' time (read a book, grab your favourite coffee, catch up with a friend).
> Prioritise the basics—sleep, water, movement.
> Book that health check you've been putting off.
> Regularly check your body for any changes like new lumps, bumps or moles.

By taking care of yourself first, you'll be able to better look after others in your life. 💕

Early detection matters.

👉 More than 65% of lung cancers can be successfully treated when found early.

The National Lung Cancer Screening Program is helping eligible Australians get checked sooner with a simple, low-dose CT scan.

If you’re aged 50 to 70 and currently smoke or have recently quit, you may be eligible for a free scan.

Take the step today, talk to your healthcare provider.
