Morrisons Puts NHS Advice On Signs Of Cancer On Bath And Shower Gels

The NHS and Morrisons have joined forces to put advice on own-brand bath and shower gels urging people to look out for possible signs of cancer.


People will be able to see clear advice printed on a range of nine bottles, urging them to look out for lumps, swelling, skin changes and unexplained bruising.



Messaging on the bottles includes “Be body aware” and “Know the signs of cancer”.

The products will start to appear in about 450 Morrisons stores and online throughout this month.

Professor Peter Johnson, national clinical director for cancer at NHS England, said: “If you notice a lump, swelling, skin change or anything else that doesn’t look or feel right while you’re in the bath or shower, please contact your GP practice.

“This campaign is about turning an everyday routine into a simple health check reminder, helping people know their bodies better and spot possible signs of cancer earlier.

“In most cases it won’t be cancer but, if it is, finding it early can make all the difference.”

An NHS spokesman said it was open to working with other supermarkets who may wish to add labels to their products.
