Cervical cancer is preventable, and early detection saves lives. Attending your cervical screening (also known as a smear test) is a small step that makes a BIG difference. It’s quick, easy, and could be life-saving.

Did you know?
Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers.
Regular screening can detect abnormal cells before they turn into cancer.
The HPV vaccine offers powerful protection.

This let’s break the stigma and encourage each other to prioritise our health. Book your cervical screening when invited and remind others in your life to do the same - you can still book even if you were invited months ago. Together, we can make a difference.

The thyroid gland is a small butterfly shaped gland that makes and releases hormones. It’s found at the front, lower part of your neck, just behind the small hollow where your collar bones meet.

If you’ve noticed any of these changes, or anything else unusual for you, talk to your doctor. In most cases, it won’t be cancer – but if it is, diagnosing it early can make a real difference.
