A Manurewa resident owes his life to the National Bowel Screening
Programme, which was launched in Counties Manukau a year ago.

Sixty-one-year-old Society Pasila (Sila)Wilson was one of more than 37,000 residents invited to participate in the programme and encouraged to do the bowel screen test. For Sila, it was a no brainer to do the test given there was a family history of bowel cancer.

Read more of Sila's story in the link below.

Bowel cancer is the second highest cause of cancer death in New Zealand. Currently, more than 3,000 people are diagnosed with bowel cancer every year, with more than 1,200 dying from the disease each year.

The programme saves lives by finding bowel cancer early when it can be successfully treated. Those eligible will be invited to take a screening test every two years.

For more information about the programme please visit www.timetoscreen.nz... or call 0800 924 432, or talk to your family doctor.
