Great to have the support of @NorthWestUNISON #smearondemand @LucyCJones88
The rate of cervical cancer has more than doubled in women aged 25-29 years since 2004. It doesn't have to be this way.
Please use our write to your MP tool (takes 1 min) and ask them to change the law to protect women.

‘A cervical smear test is as important as the air you breathe’ : Signs and symptoms of cervical cancer & the process of a smear test among vital topics to be discussed at an online awareness session later today. Details: derryjournal.com/health/cerv…
Thank you for your support and a great question for the health minister to answer. #CervicalCancerPreventionWeek
This #CervicalCancerPreventionWeek I became aware that some constituents hadn't yet received their usual routine invite so I've asked the Health Minister:
✅ how many are on the waiting list for routine cervical screening tests in GP practices & when the backlog will be cleared
Thanks to @teamsorcha for reminding women of the signs of cervical cancer.
✅ I have written the DoH for an assessment of what support is given to women who have been sexually assaulted and or/ abused who fear attending smear appointments.
#TeamSorcha #SmearOnDemand
Today marks the start of #CervicalCancerPreventionWeek Do you know the the symptoms of cervical cancer? If you are experiencing any of the below, please contact your GP practice today.
Cervical screening saves lives. Fear the cancer and not the smear test.

Today, we're proud to join NGOs calling on @MattHancock to address the impact of #harmfulchemicals on the nation's health!
We urge @DHSCgovuk to keep chemicals of concern out of our daily lives to protect public health + environment.
