Scottish Breast Screening Programme

Thank you NHS Scotland for my free routine mammogram NHS Scotland appointment today at Morrisons, Bathgate, West Lothian!

It was done so gently - it was even more comfortable than getting a bra fitted!

Ladies, if you get a free breast screening appointment invitation letter please accept the invitation.

For those battling breast cancer thinking of you and hopefully we can one day eradicate this disease with better research, funding and treatments!

Give your breasts the best love and care by getting them checked and remember to routinely self check your own breasts so you notice any lumps or changes! See photo on how to do this by Breast Cancer Now in comments

When you get your screening appointment will depend on the GP practice you're registered with. Don't worry if your appointment doesn't arrive as soon as you turn 50.

Each GP practice takes part in the screening programme every three years so you may not receive your first invitation until you're nearly 53.

If you need to change your appointment, please call - 0131 537 7400.

We were at Morrisons in Kirkcaldy today promoting the Breast Screening Mobile Unit and raising awareness of the importance of breast screening.

I was also joined by my colleague Lorraine from the Fife Screening Team, and together we helped raise awareness of all the national screening programmes available in Scotland

💙 We received a fantastic response, with lots of interest and great conversations from members of the community.

It is the 1st of July and this is a monthly reminder to check your breast - It is so important to know what is " normal " to you and what is not. If you have any concerns contact your GP. !
