Beating Bowel Cancer works to save lives from the UK’s second biggest cancer killer and the money raised from the Tough Ten will help the charity to raise awareness of bowel cancer and support patients and their families.

Each year more than 41,000 people across the UK are diagnosed with bowel cancer; however, if diagnosed early over 90 per cent of cases could be cured.
