The FIT50 programme was launched in 2014 in conjunction with Singapore Cancer Society’s 50th anniversary celebrations. FIT50 programme aims to encourage those entering their silver years to stay “fit” and adopt regular health screening for the three commonly diagnosed cancers affecting Singaporeans.

Singapore Cancer Society will be providing cancer screening services at no charge to Singapore Citizens who are turning 50 years old in 2022 and due for screening. This is to encourage them to stay fit, healthy and cancer-free.

The fully-sponsored cancer screening services will include HPV test, Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) and the mammogram screening.

Singapore Cancer Society will pay for remaining charges after prevailing government subsidies for screening tests, so that eligible participants do not pay any amount for it.
