Early detection saves lives.. your health is worth it!!!!
Did you know that even though breast screening (mammograms) is free and accessible, a significant number of women still don’t attend when invited?
Nearly 30% of eligible women in England skipped their screening appointment in 2023–24—about 748,000 women. That’s almost 1 in 3 who missed the opportunity for early detection.
Skipping your mammogram isn't just missing an appointment—it could mean missing the opportunity to catch something when it's most treatable.
If breast cancer is detected later, treatment may be harder and more invasive. But attending your screening offers peace of mind, the benefit of early intervention, and better outcomes.
Take action 💪 If you’ve been invited, book today. Do it for yourself, your loved ones, and your future.
💕 Early detection could make all the difference!
