April is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month.

Bowel cancer is more treatable when found early, so it’s important to know the symptoms and take up screening when invited.

Symptoms can include:
-Changes in bowel habits (looser stools, constipation, or frequency changes)
-Blood in your poo (or bleeding from the back passage)
-Unexplained weight loss
-Ongoing abdominal pain, bloating, or discomfort
-Feeling tired for no clear reason

These symptoms don’t always mean cancer, but they should never be ignored, especially if they persist.

If you notice persistent symptoms, or something doesn’t feel right, contact your GP practice for advice.

Did you know some NHS services can be accessed without needing a GP appointment first? You can contact these services yourself. 💙💚
(These services cover the NHS area of North Cumbria - North, West, and East...... South Cumbria may have different options.)

Sudden eye problems? If you have a red or painful eye, something stuck in your eye, sudden vision changes, or flashes/floaters, contact the North East & North Cumbria Urgent Eye Care Service (CUES).

Call first - not a walk-in. You may get advice, a virtual or in-person appointment, or a hospital referral.

Not for routine checks - ongoing conditions like cataracts or glaucoma should be managed by your usual optometrist or hospital eye team.
