Are you aged between 50 and 70 and have a history of smoking?

You could be eligible for a free lung scan every two years through the new National Lung Cancer Screening Program.

It’s a simple low-dose CT scan that checks your lungs for early signs of lung cancer. The earlier lung cancer is found, the easier it is to treat.

The test is quick, painless and could save your life.

🗣️ If you think you might be eligible, speak to your doctor or healthcare provider.

Today is Cervical Cancer Elimination Day of Action – if you are aged 25 to 74, a Cervical Screening Test every 5 years could save your life.

The human papillomavirus (HPV) is the main cause of cervical cancer. A Cervical Screening Test and the HPV vaccine can prevent cervical cancer.

You have a choice to collect your own sample using a vaginal swab in private, or have it done by a doctor or nurse.

How your breasts look and feel may be different to another person. However, breast awareness can help you become familiar with how your own breasts normally look and feel, so that you can alert your doctor if you identify any new or persistent changes that are different for you.

You heard us spreading the message of 'Say yes to you' during Women’s Health Week – but it shouldn’t stop there. Prioritising your health is something to do every day.

Too often, women put others’ needs ahead of their own, sometimes at the cost of their health.

It’s time to put yourself first – to keep saying yes to regular health checks, to self-care, and to making time for yourself. Because when you look after yourself, everyone around you benefits too.
