In conjunction with Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, BIG CARING Group has partnered with the Colorectal Cancer Survivorship Society Malaysia (CORUM) to expand access to early colorectal cancer screening across the country, targeting 10,000 eligible individuals through selected community pharmacies and outreach initiatives.
It also aligns with Malaysia’s National Strategic Plan for Colorectal Cancer (2021–2025), which aims to increase national screening coverage and improve early detection through wider access to screening.

Pilot Stores for Colon Cancer Screening
This partnership aims to improve early screening participation among Malaysians aged 45 to 75 by increasing access to immunochemical faecal occult blood (iFOBT) self-test kits at selected BIG Pharmacy and CARiNG Pharmacy outlets, alongside community engagement activities.
The iFOBT is a simple, non-invasive screening test that can be completed at home and is recommended by the Ministry of Health for colorectal cancer screening. Under this partnership, the cost of the test kits will be subsidised to make screening more accessible.
