Cervical Cancer Prevention Week

Posted on:

22 – 28 Jan 2024

Did you know together, we can end cervical cancer? The UK has the tools to make cervical cancer a thing of the past, but we need government commitment.

This week is Cervical Cancer Prevention Week, and we’re supporting Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust to raise awareness of cervical cancer, encourage uptake of the HPV vaccination and cervical screening, and asking UK Government to prioritise cervical cancer. Prioritising cervical cancer as a health policy, committing to eliminating cervical cancer, and to developing a holistic strategy that improves and supports the cancer prevention programmes, can help stop cervical cancer.

You can play your part too. Get involved, show support on social media, tell your friends, go for screening. Going for your cervical screening can help prevent cervical cancer. Join the campaign: www.jostrust.org.uk/ccpw

Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust is the UK’s leading cervical cancer charity. It provides information and support to anyone affected and campaigns for excellence in cervical cancer treatment, care and prevention. Its national Helpline is free, confidential and on 0808 802 8000
