Reducing the age for bowel cancer screening offered on the NHS

Early day motion 454, tabled 25 November 2024 by Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 23 members.

That this House recognises the hard work of Stephen Rippington, who whilst battling against bowel cancer, was active in raising awareness for the disease both within his local area and online, and his wife Jessica who has raised over £10,000 for bowel cancer research; notes that 1 in 4 diagnoses occur among people aged under 50; and, following Stephen's passing earlier this year, calls for the age eligibility of screening tests for bowel cancer offered by the NHS to be reviewed.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 15, DUP 2, Green 2, Independent 2, Labour 1, Labour/Co-operative 1.
