Abolish the cervical screening age limit of 25
Lower the age limit at which women can be cervically screened
Cervical screening is important for any sexually active woman in detecting cervical cancer and other serious medical issues.
Many young women are sexually active from age 16 and many lives could be saved by lowering the age limit or abolishing it all together.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/623485
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to make cervical screening available from a different age to that requested by the above petition, but it would need to be clear what age you want cervical screening to be available from.
