Cervical Screening Awareness Week 19th -24th June
The NHS announced last week that from July, younger women (aged 25 to 49) who test negative for HPV, meaning they are at very low risk of cervical cancer over the next 10 years, will safely be invited at 5-year intervals rather than 3, in line with major clinical evidence.
In the following slides we explain a little more about these changes and highlight some useful sources of further information and help if you have any queries or concerns.
If you receive a notification, please book your appointment via the online form or calling the surgery: Request Appointment
If you are unsure if you are due for your screening or have any other concerns, please get in touch with us via the online form above or by calling our Reception team on 01932 253 055.

You can also contact Ask Eve and chat to their nurses, Helen and Tracie, about any questions or worries you have about your gynaecological health, from signs and symptoms, HPV, cervical screening, family history or any of the five gynaecological cancers.
There is no question too big, too small or too embarrassing. Ask Eve will be there for you.
To contact Ask Eve, call on 0808 802 0019 – free to call from landlines and mobile phones – or email nurse@eveappeal.org.uk, or you can fill in a contact form and they will get back to you within 48 hours (Monday-Friday).
