Find out more about Colorectal Cancer at Singapore Cancer Society's Public Forums in March

Do you know that Colorectal Cancer is the number one cancer affecting Singaporeans today? More than 1,400 people are diagnosed with the disease every year.

Many of us are unaware of the symptoms of colorectal cancer, as well as the screening and treatment options made available.

As part of the Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month in March, the Singapore Cancer Society will be holding public forums to raise awareness amongst Singaporeans about the disease.

Held in English, Mandarin and Malay, the public forums will provide members of the public with more information on colorectal cancer, its causes and symptoms, preventive measures and various methods of treatment.
