'I lost 15 members of my family to cancer'

Available for over a year

Jo Day, who lives near Bromsgrove, says she encourages anyone eligible for cancer screenings to get checked out, after losing a number of close family members to the disease. She shares with Gavin Kermack how she has survived a diagnosis of bowel cancer herself and that she is backing an online tool from the organisation Stand Up To Cancer, allowing people to check their eligibility for checks.
