Volunteer Champions - Can You Help?


The Care Forum is looking for volunteer champions to help raise awareness of the early signs of bladder and kidney cancer.  As a volunteer champion you will be supported to go out into your local community to alert people to get checked out by their GP if they spot blood in their urine.  Blood in urine can be a symptom of either bladder cancer or kidney cancer.  

It is estimated that earlier diagnosis of this symptom will save almost 1000 lives.  By raising awareness of the early signs of bladder and kidney cancer you could be helping to save someone’s life.  

The Care Forum is looking for volunteer champions who can raise awareness to communities in Bristol, South Gloucestershire, Bath and North East Somerset, North Somerset, Somerset and Wiltshire.   

If you are interested they would love to hear from you. You can contact their volunteer coordinator Kerri Mann on ( 0117 9589 306 or email kerrimann@thecareforum.org.uk
