The Cheshire and Merseyside Endoscopy Network, supported by CMCA, has recently delivered accelerated accreditation of the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme to clinicians to help restore services after the challenges of COVID-19.

Delivering this programme in a shorter space of time will provide a significant boost to the local workforce and will allow clinicians to undertake more screening appointments, which will help with faster diagnosis and better chances of recovery for local people.
