Stop the NHS changing Cervical Screening Smear tests from 3 years to 5 years
From 1st July 2025 the NHS plan on changing the Cervical Screening Smear tests timescales for those who test negative for HPV. This means women aged 25 - 49 will be invited every 5 years rather than every 3 years.
This is a risk to so many lives. PLEASE help us put a stop to this!
This is risking the lives of so many women. Just because there is a lower risk for people without HPV doesn't mean there's no risk at all.
PLEASE help stop this change
