We regret to inform you of the passing of Dame Deborah James, the most incredible mother, wife, daughter, and sister. Today, Deborah passed away quietly as her loved ones were by her side.

“Deborah, who many of you will recognise as Bowelbabe, was an inspiration. We are very proud of her work and dedication to philanthropic campaigning, fundraising, and her never-ending efforts to raise awareness of cancer, which affected so many people’s lives.

Deborah “broke through barriers, challenged taboos, and changed the dialogue about cancer by sharing her experience with the globe.

Her steadfastness in trying to raise money and awareness was admirable, even during the most trying times.

We appreciate you giving us some private family time, and with the @bowelbabefund, we hope to carry on Deborah’s legacy for a very long time.

Deborah’s courage and zeal inspired all of us, and one of her last acts resulted in a significant modification to the packaging of toilet paper.

Beginning in September, a QR code on an initial 29 million packs of Andrex Classic Clean, one of the best-selling toilet paper brands in the UK, will connect customers to the organization’s page on symptoms.

“We’re happy to collaborate with Andrex to promote crucial awareness of bowel cancer symptoms with people all around the country,” said Genevieve Edwards, CEO of Bowel Cancer UK. Every 15 minutes, a new case of this cancer is discovered in the UK, making it the fourth most prevalent cancer there.

Bowel cancer is treatable and curable, especially if discovered early. However, 60% of patients receive their diagnosis in a more advanced stage, making treatment considerably more challenging. Low awareness of the colon cancer red flag symptoms that should cause people to contact their doctor contributes to the problem.

“This wonderful alliance will surely save lives and assist millions of people in the UK know what to look out for.”

Dame Deborah, thank you; have peace.
