This week is Cervical Screening Awareness Week 💜
Nearly 1 in 3 people don’t attend their cervical screening, but it’s so important to go when you’re invited. We know it can feel uncomfortable or cause anxiety, and it’s completely normal to feel nervous, but it usually only takes a few minutes and could save your life 🩺

Cervical screening (sometimes called a smear test) checks the cells of your cervix the lower part of the womb. It helps spot any changes early, so they can be monitored or treated before they develop into cancer.
Please make sure you book your appointment when invited 📅

It is all about being seen, heard and valued - a positive message that has been created by people with a learning disability to build a movement of change.

Every year, countries around the world mark World Blood Donor Day ❤️ It’s a chance to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products, and to thank the amazing people who give blood to help save lives.

Having access to safe blood is a vital part of any healthcare system. It helps make sure patients get the care they need when they need it most 🩸

The theme changes each year to recognise the selfless donors who give blood to help people they may never meet 🤝
