Cervical Screening

A test could save your life!

Cervical screening is offered to women and anyone with a cervix who lives in Scotland aged between 25 and 64. Some people who have changes that need to be monitored will be offered screening until they’re 70. These changes will have been detected by a previous screening appointment.

Your cervical screening invite

When you get your invitation, read the information carefully. Screening is a choice. You can talk to your GP or nurse about any worries you may have. There are lots of things they can do to support you.

Appointments

Most people have their cervical screening at their GP practice. If you decide to be screened, contact your GP practice to arrange an appointment.

Did you know that small everyday habits can make a big difference to your energy use over time? With more of us spending cosy evenings indoors during the winter, it’s easy to leave devices plugged in or on standby without thinking about it.

A simple tip: when you’re finished with a device, try unplugging it rather than leaving it on standby. It’s a quick, easy way to cut down on energy waste and keep those bills a little lower.

Whatever else you’re worried about this festive period, you can be confident that Breastfeeding is welcomed, supported and promoted when you’re out and about with your baby.



Look for the Breastfeeding Friendly Scotland window awards, these venues have joined the national scheme to reassure breastfeeding families of a special welcome in their venue.



Remember the Breastfeeding etc. (Scotland) Act 2005 protects a baby's right to be fed anywhere that children are allowed, to allow you to be confident breastfeeding whenever and wherever your baby needs fed. So if you are out and about and your favourite place hasn’t joined yet, invite them to join the scheme too.

If you are a venue interested in joining the scheme find more info here: https://buff.ly/6Y9xkPL
