There has been a worrying drop in the number of people coming forward for cervical screening, with around 30% of eligible women and people with a cervix in Swindon - about 21,000 - overdue or not yet booked in.

The screening helps to detect abnormalities within the cervix and prevent the potential development of cervical cancer.

So, if you've been invited, please don't delay and book in today - it could just save your life.🩷

And for our staff, we're proud to have a dedicated clinic at the hospital, making it easier for them to have this important health check.
