    Cervical screening can help stop cancer before it starts. It's important you attend your screening when invited by the NHS. And if you missed your last one, speak to your GP practice. For more information visit ➡️nhs.uk/cervicalscreen…. #CervicalScreeningAwarenessWeek

    When you need us, A&E might seem like the obvious choice – but there are many ways to get help for non-emergencies. For urgent medical help, you access NHS 111 visiting 111.nhs.uk or using the NHS App. Get the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
