Default First Campaign ever to be launched for Cervical Smears

Take up for test has reached an all time low

The test is going to be rebranded as apparently smear test is offputting


https://news.sky.com/story/cervical-...s-off-11655442

he first ever government campaign to encourage women to attend their cervical smear tests has been launched as it's revealed the number of women skipping their screenings is at a 20-year high.

Cervical screenings, better known as smear tests, are free on the NHS for all women aged between 25 and 64.

They can detect the early signs of cervical cancer before the "abnormal cells" become cancerous.

But one in four women are not attending their tests, despite one in nine saying they would take a test that could help prevent cancer.

Public Health England has launched a national campaign to try to counter this trend using TV and digital adverts.
