Reverse the recently announced increase in timeframes for cervical screenings
Reverse the increase in times for the most at risk group for cervical cancer, 25-49 year old women, back to once every three years rather than five years
A cervical screening once every three years is already too late for some women to find out that they have cervical cancer - once every five years will irrefutably be a death sentence for some. This is an incredibly simple screening and will save the NHS funding costs in the long term by preventing cervical cancer in thousands of women.
