A survey has found that almost half of people in Ceredigion have ignored a bowel screening test.Kerry Edwards, 63, who was diagnosed with bowel cancer after completing the test, is trying to encourage more people to take part in the programme. She said: “I received the bowel screening kit in the post shortly after my 60th birthday and completed it straight away. Shortly after, I received a letter referring me for a colonoscopy where I was told I had bowel cancer.“I had surgery to remove the tumour followed by chemotherapy as it was in my lymph glands. I had no symptoms what so ever and I doubt I would be here now if I hadn’t done the test so I urge everyone to do it. It’s free, it’s done in the privacy of your own bathroom and it … [Read more...] about ‘Don’t ignore bowel screening test that could save your life’
Yorkshire protesters travel to London for People’s Vote march
0 Have your say Yorkshire was out in force at the People's Vote march in London and many protesters came armed with their own banners and placards. At least 670,000 people turned out for the march, organisers have claimed, and the Yorkshire Post caught up with a number of protesters who made their way down to London last week so they could voice their demand for a referendum on the final deal. There were people from all walks of life, from Scarborough and Leeds, Harrogate and Sheffield, Hull and Doncaster. Many Yorkshire attendees commented how peaceful, calm and polite the march was. There were huge bottlenecks as protesters marched on Parliament, yet there was no jostling. Elderly people on crutches and people with young children were prioritised. One man was walking backwards taking a photo and fell over a bollard. Everyone around him rushed to his rescue, helping him up. There was the odd bump as protesters were herded together, but people were swift to … [Read more...] about Yorkshire protesters travel to London for People’s Vote march

A woman is desperately searching for her missing father, before it's too late. Paula Ali, 49 suffered from breast cancer six years ago, and through her illness she had one regret, that she wasn't able to meet her father and fill in the missing piece in her life. Being brushed by death, Paula was determined to resume her search for her other parent. Paula Ali said: "I was adopted and managed to find my mother when I was 20 and she told me a bit about my father then. "I've been searching since I was 18, but I've hit a wall. "All I know is that he left before I was born, and might have been a builder or painter. "He was in his early 20s, with blonde curly or wavy hair and blue eyes. "He was originally from Carmarthenshire, but he and my mother met in Hove, Brighton, where he was working. "My mother said his name was Ken Price or Pryce. "I'm just looking for closure. This is the last puzzle piece left of who I am.

Rita Parmar, Make-Up Doctor, writes about long-lasting make-up Summer is over, and although we’ve had countless days of fun with the kids, it’s time to get back to our own time, back to work, back to the long days in the office. It’s that time when we start to notice our make-up doesn’t last all day, maybe it’s the fact that we were too busy to notice. But let’s look at what we can do to keep our makeup face on all day!The Prep People often jump to the conclusion that your makeup doesn’t last because the foundation isn’t great, but most of the time this isn’t the case at all. To get make-up to really last, it’s all about the preparation. Do you moisturise skin and prime skin prior to foundation application? If not, you could be missing a trick, and not because ‘primer makes foundation last’ but because by applying your foundation directly on to the skin, the skin will absorb the important properties from the … [Read more...] about How to keep your make-up on all day
