To lower the age for smear tests and make them annual for women.
To support us with providing the tools and funding so that the NHS will lower the cervical screening age and to support annual screening instead of the every 3 and every 5 year tests.
Cervical cancer has risen in statistics and there needs further support for younger girls who have symptoms
I want the government to recognise that womens health matters particularly in this area. Cervical cancer and breast cancer affects women of all ages not just in the NHS tick box age!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do as we don't know what age you would like the screening age to be reduced to.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
You may wish to sign this petition which calls for the Government to review the NHS decision to make cervical screening every 5 years: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/729981
