Synopsis
When was the last time you took a bowel cancer screening test? Recent research reveals a significant gap in participation in the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program, with just 24–31 per cent of people who speak a language other than English at home taking part compared to 44–47 per cent of English speakers. Dr Pallavi Sharma says early detection can save lives and calls for culturally tailored campaigns to boost participation among Hindi-speaking communities.
