Rotary Saves 650 Lives from Cancer

2017 will be the last year that District 9650 will be offering Bowelscan kits to the public. As well as introducing this program in this District we assisted Bowelscan programs in Alice Springs, Perth, East Gosford & Manningham in Victoria & supported other Rotary Districts.

Over the past thirty two years District 9650 Bowelscan kits have informed over 3000 patients they have polyps and extended the life of over 650 people who were detected with bowel cancer in our District through the kits.

Members of our Rotary club have given 1000s of hours manning Bowelscan Kit sales for one week each year for the past 32 years. We have enjoyed engaging with the public in such a worthwhile cause and have met several people who have told us that a Rotary Bowelscan Kit has resulted in them becoming aware of early onset of bowel cancer & they have been healed.
