From 1st July 2025, women and people with a cervix aged 25-49 years who test HPV negative - meaning they are at very low risk of cervical cancer over the next 10 years - will be invited for screening every 5 years, instead of every 3. This change is as a result of improved HPV testing. For information on cervical screening visit

Cervical cancer is when abnormal cells in the lining of the cervix grow in an uncontrolled way. The cervix is part of the female reproductive system.
