🖤 Waiting for exam results can be extremely stressful.

The pressure of ‘good results’ is something that severely worries young minds.

We wish everyone good luck on results day but if you don’t receive the grades you expected, do not beat yourself up, you are so much more than your grades.

The HPV vaccine is saving lives.

New research by Queen Mary University of London and Cancer Research UK shows deaths have fallen sharply since school-age girls began being offered it in 2008, and around 200 lives have been saved in England so far thanks to the vaccine.

The vaccine protects against high-risk HPV, a virus that can lead to cervical cancer and some other cancers.

Both girls and boys can get protection from high-risk HPV by having the HPV vaccination in their teenage years. It not only protects against cervical cancer, but other types of cancer too.

You can help protect your child by giving consent for them to have their vaccination when invited.

And remember: cervical screening is still important, even if you’ve had the HPV vaccine.

It starts as a joke…

Then suddenly, it’s serious.
Cold water. Hidden dangers. No second chances.
If it feels off — it is.
Say something. Stop it. Be a mate.

💙 _It’s Cervical Screening Awareness Week_

Worried about cervical screening? You won’t be the only one, but there are things that can help make the appointment easier.

*All women aged 25 to 64 are invited for cervical screening every 5 years*. The whole appointment usually takes around 10 minutes and a nurse or doctor will explain what’s happening before they start.

You’ll be given privacy to undress and something to cover yourself with.

_You’re in control the whole time._

You can:
👤 bring someone with you for support �💬 ask questions �🤍 ask for a smaller speculum �🛏️ try a different position �✋ pause or stop the test at any time

📲 _Share this with someone who might find it reassuring._
