Around 2700 cases of cervical cancer are diagnosed in England each year - we can make this a thing of the past thanks to cervical screening & HPV vaccination. If you've received an invite for cervical screening, don’t wait. Call your GP to book an appointment as soon as possible.
What is Cervical Cancer? Cervical cancer develops in the cervix, the lower part of the womb.

Symptoms of cervical cancer include: Unusual vaginal bleeding Pain during sex Changes in vaginal discharge If you notice these symptoms, speak to your GP.

There are things you can do to lower your chances of getting cervical cancer: - Attend your cervical screening appointments when invited. - Get the HPV vaccine if you're eligible. - Use condoms to reduce the risk of HPV transmission.
