Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and over 55,000 women are diagnosed each year. Breast cancer screening saves lives, yet not all women who are invited will attend their first breast screening appointment.
If you are aged 47-53, they would love to hear from you and ask if you are willing to complete short 5 minute breast screening survey - it is anonymous and confidential and your responses will help to shape a breast screening service that respects the needs of women from all backgrounds.

This survey will close mid February.
