Free Bowel Cancer Screening
Bowel Screening is designed to find bowel cancer early in those people who don’t have any symptoms.
This simple, clean and free test kit is sent to the home of 60 – 74 year olds, who, on completing the test, and the consent form, pop it in the post to the lab.
Within 3 weeks you will be contacted with your results and told what this means for you. If you require any follow-up tests or treatment this is FREE within the public health system.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
