Pioneering keyhole bowel surgery training to go on

More than 2,000 people are diagnosed with bowel cancer each year in Wales.

But a pioneering Welsh scheme to train doctors in keyhole bowel surgery means more patients in Wales than ever before are getting specialist operations - and access rates to the surgery here are amongst the highest in the world.

The course that trains surgeons from across Wales and beyond is also up for a string of awards.

Health correspondent Owain Clarke has been given access to the training.
