The Gut Cancer Foundation says author and broadcaster Nigel Latta played a vital role in raising awareness of the disease. 

The high-profile clinical psychologist has died from stomach cancer this week – he was 58. 

He was heavily involved with the Gut Cancer Foundation following his diagnosis, educating people about the symptoms and risk factors. 

Foundation CEO Liam Willis told Ryan Bridge the increased awareness means people are more likely to get themselves assessed. 

He says the earlier these cancers are detected, the better the chances of survival.
