Get baking to beat bowel cancer

Beating Bowel Cancer looks for budding bakers in West Sussex to help beat the UK’s second biggest cancer killer.

The charity want volunteers to whip up cakes or biscuits for a bake sale fundraiser at work, home, social club or sports club. The challenge is taking place anytime over the summer.

Beating Bowel Cancer aims to raise £10,000 towards its Hidden Heartache appeal, so they can support more patients and families. The money could cover the cost of the charity’s nurse help line for three months, which could support over 600 bowel cancer patients, families and friends.

Each year in the UK more than 41,000 people are diagnosed with bowel cancer and around 16,000 people die of the disease. But despite such alarming statistics, the good news is that bowel cancer can be successfully treated in over 90 per cent of cases if caught early.

Sarah Webster Community Fundraiser for the South East, says:  “Let’s make a real difference to people beating Bowel Cancer”
