Yesterday a study from @UniofOxford found further evidence that people with more calcium in their diet can help lower their risk of bowel cancer.
Last night, Ruby from our research team was interviewed about this study on @BBCWorld. It’s fantastic to see this study get such great coverage.

Our new research strategy, ‘Our roadmap for research’ is here!
#BowelCancer is the UK’s fourth most common cancer, and the second biggest cancer killer. Yet it doesn’t have to be this way. Our strategy outlines how we’ll invest in research that supports earlier diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

ALT Quote from Dr Lisa Wilde, Director of Research, Policy and Influencing at Bowel Cancer UK. The quote says "Developed in consultation with patient representatives, clinicians, and researchers, it sets out how we’ll improve early diagnosis and treatment of the disease through directly funding research, and bringing together patients, researchers and industry to find solutions. This strategy will take us even closer to a future where nobody dies of bowel cancer."

We're wearing #Red4Research today as we celebrate the #BowelCancer research community and everyone who takes part in research.
Every development in bowel cancer diagnosis and treatment starts as a research idea. We want to say a huge thank you to the amazing researchers whose hard work develops those ideas into something that can make a difference to people affected by bowel cancer.
I keep thinking how 3 little girls were killed & more were hurt & traumatised, & instead of talking about their precious lives, we are being forced to focus on violent entitled white men burning cars & towns, who don’t give a shit about women’s & girls’ safety.
