Bowel Research UK’s Patient and Public Involvement Manager Sam Alexandra Rose is joined by Eamonn Dunne, the Partnerships and Projects Development Manager for Thomas Pocklington Trust, a national charity supporting blind and partially sighted people. In this episode, they discuss the difficulties that people with visual impairments have when taking a FIT (Faecal Immunochemical Test), which can be essential for the early detection and diagnosis of bowel disease. Eamonn introduces a prototype, named FIT-aid, which could help people with visual impairments take a FIT with ease.
