Morrisons makes 'first-of-its-kind' announcement across the UK
The retailer is printing body-awareness prompts on nine own-brand bottles to encourage early checks for lumps, swelling and skin changes.
- This month, the NHS and Bradford-based Morrisons launched a campaign placing cancer awareness messages on own-brand bath and shower products in about 450 stores.
- Professor Peter Johnson, national clinical director for cancer at NHS England, described the initiative as a way to turn daily routines into health checks by encouraging people to seek advice if something feels wrong.
- One man who had cancer at 27 in 2024 praised the campaign for turning daily routines into health checks, noting that after treatment, he was cancer-free in less than three months.
- Building on previous Nutmeg-branded underwear campaigns, Corporate Affairs Director David Scott noted the NHS remains open to adopting this initiative with other supermarkets.
- Encouraging shoppers to "be body aware" and "know the signs of cancer," Public Health Minister Sharon Hodgson stated the partnership helps build a healthier Britain.
