Cervical screening, which used to be called a smear test, is a test to check the health of the cervix and help prevent cervical cancer.

All women aged 25 to 64 are invited for cervical screening every 5 years.

If you have been invited for a cervical screening, you should attend.

Two women die every day from cervical cancer in England. Yet it is one of the most preventable cancers and getting screened can help stop it before it starts. Screening checks for certain types of the HPV virus that can cause cell changes to your cervix. Cell changes are easily treated and this prevents cervical cancer.

This , we want to remind our carers to take care of themselves.

All too often carers can be so preoccupied with the health and well-being of the person they are caring for, that their own needs take a back seat.

If you're a carer, please let us know. If we know, we can provide you with support.
