Newspaper Article 1 March 2012 - Buckinghamshire Examiner

I was asked back in February by Bowel Cancer UK if I would speak to a local reporter for an article she was writing for the Buckinghamshire Examiner. The reporter wanted to include a recent story about a local person who had bowel cancer to include with an article that she was writing to raise the importance of early detection of bowel cancer.
It was run in their 1 March edition but I thought as it is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month I would include it now.

I hoped that I could get just post a link to their website so you could read the article but it appears I did not make it to the website! The reporter sent me a copy by email.  Sorry for the small print - hope you can enlarge it sufficiently to be able to read it.

Trevor Collins who unfortunately died as his cancer was not picked up soon enough was a Director at Ernst & Young and while I did not have the pleasure of meeting him personally. I worked with many people who had and  they could not speak highly of him and were all shocked when they heard the news he had died. The foundation named after him and run by his widow is doing a brilliant job in raising awareness of the early detection of bowel cancer.
