This flexible opportunity enables you as a volunteer to represent Bowel Cancer UK both nationally and at a local level, by delivering PowerPoint presentations (standardised template created by Bowel Cancer UK) either virtually over zoom or to your local community (i.e. community groups and workplaces). We encourage volunteers to add their own experience of bowel cancer when delivering these talks: we believe that people with experience of bowel cancer, either personally or through a family member or friend, are uniquely equipped to raise awareness and deliver these talks.
