Jason Mohammad takes your calls on bowel cancer awareness month, hot takeaways around schools and word games.

The Phone In

Available for 28 days

Jason Mohammad with Tuesday's Phone In... We’re taking your calls on bowel cancer this afternoon. A third of people who are eligible for screenings in Wales don't take their tests according to Bowel Cancer UK. Wales has the lowest average screening uptake out of all the UK nations. Bowel cancer awareness month begins tomorrow – so please get in touch with your experiences. Should the number of takeaways around schools and playgrounds be limited? In the lead up to the Senedd election, we're taking a look at one policy from the manifesto of each of the six main parties. We’ve already looked at Reform UK and the Conservatives. Welsh Labour launched their manifesto yesterday. And one policy suggestion is to protect young people's health, by using local planning rules to limit hot takeaways around schools and playgrounds. What do you make of this idea? And which word games do you love – and why? The creator of Wordle - Josh Wardle from Monmouthshire – has admitted he hasn’t played it since selling the game to the New York Times. The puzzle editor for the tv show ‘House of Games’ - Alan Connor - will join us for a chat about our enduring love of a word puzzle. Call or WhatsApp 03700 100 110 or Text 8 10 12. Be part of the nations' conversation
