#WorldAidsDay2024 is celebrated on the 1st Dec to remember all those loved and lost to HIV-related illness and to stand with those living with HIV across the world. When you attend your next appointment, pop in to see our lovely nursing team to request a BBV test 🙏🏻 @wfcouncil

Screening can help prevent bowel cancer or find it at an early stage when it's easier to treat. All you have to do is follow the instructions, pop it back in the letterbox, and get your results back in around 10 days. Find out more at bit.ly/WFbowelcancer @LBWalthamForest

Bowel cancer is the 3rd most common type of cancer, and it can affect anyone. This is why it's important that anyone that receives a bowel cancer screening kit uses it. When you turn 50 until you’re 74, you’ll get a kit automatically posted to your home address every 2 years.
