🌟 Cervical Cancer Prevention Week 🌟

Cervical screening saves lives. It’s a simple test that checks the health of your cervix, helping to detect and prevent cervical cancer by identifying abnormal changes early. Despite its importance, 1 in 4 people do not attend their appointment, leaving themselves at risk.

In 2024, an estimated 13,820 new cases of cervical cancer are expected, and tragically, around 4,360 women may lose their lives to this preventable disease. Don’t let a missed appointment put you at risk.

If you haven’t received a letter or think you’ve missed your screening, please contact your GP or local sexual health clinic. Your health matters, and this small step can make a big difference. 💙
