Philosophy A distinctive, direct talking poster and ambient campaign featuring iconic figures graphically showing symptoms and talking about the actions needed.
Problem Amongst older (45 - 70) people in poorer areas, there's a reluctance to spot a symptom of cancer and to do something about it re going to the Doctors. People either think they'll never get it, wouldn't want to know if they had it or that they couldn't be cured anyway.
