Bowel cancer is the most diagnosed cancer here in New Zealand with over 3,000 people diagnosed each year.

​

90% of bowel cancers can be prevented if we catch it early enough by screening at an earlier age, and rehabilitating cancer patients to reduce secondary bowel cancer and other secondary diseases such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

​

Bowel Cancer Foundation Trust provides screening, rehabilitation and help with treatment for those who do not qualify in the public system to detect bowel cancer early and help save lives.

​

We also fund vital research and partner with a number of leading clinicians, institutions and academics across New Zealand

helping to provide better patient outcomes and equity of care across the country. 

How we help

Screening

We help give peace of mind and provide private screening information to those who do not qualify for public screening to detect bowel cancer early and save lives.

Rehabilitation

We organise rehabilitation for bowel cancer patients after grueling treatment, helping to reduce secondary illnesses and cancer re-occurrence. 

Treatment

We help keep families together for longer by organising unfunded immunotherapy treatments that reduce tumours with our Cost Share Programme.

Research

We fund vital research helping to provide better patient outcomes.
