<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0Do you know the signs and symptoms of Bowel Cancer?-Its time to get behind it!<\/h3>\n
June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, an initiative of\u00a0Bowel Cancer Australia<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0aimed at raising public awareness of a disease that claims the lives of 80 Australians every week.<\/p>\n
Cancer Council will be coming to Monash University to delivered a talk on on the signs and symptoms bowel cancer and the home screening test.\u00a0The presentation will be held on 7th of June at 12:00-1:00 at the Clayton campus.\u00a0To register for this session, please refer to the booking system<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/h3>\nUni Mental health and wellbeing day took place at each of the campuses from 30 April – 4 May with approximately 2500 staff and students participating in face to face activities, exercise classes, information sessions and seminars.\u00a0\u00a0The theme \u2018Community\u2019 brought people together, had them chatting and put a spotlight on the benefits of being a part of something bigger than just ourselves.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cMonash is such a big uni – It\u2019s easy to for staff and students to feel anonymous and have trouble making connections when there are so many people on different schedules.\u00a0\u00a0We often hear from students that this isolation is one of the hardest parts of university life, and so the aim of this campaign was to link people with networks, whether it be within their own work teams, clubs or sporting teams.\u00a0\u00a0We have received some lovely feedback demonstrating that this did, indeed happen which we are delighted about!\u201d said Clare Swanson, Mental Health Programs Coordinator<\/p>\n
