Cervical Cancer Prevention Week is an opportunity to raise awareness on the risks of cervical cancer, and help women and people with cervixes learn about how to reduce these risks and prevent the illness.

It's vital that you are: Attending cervical screening when invited; knowing the symptoms of cervical cancer and seeking medical advice if experiencing any; taking up the HPV vaccine if aged 11-18, and encouraging others to do so; knowing where to find support and further information.
