Cervical Cancer Prevention Week

News - 23 January 2024

Did you know together, we can end cervical cancer? The UK has the tools to make cervical cancer a thing of the past, but we need government commitment.

This week is Cervical Cancer Prevention Week, and we’re supporting Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust to raise awareness of cervical cancer, encourage uptake of the HPV vaccination and cervical screening, and asking UK Government to prioritise cervical cancer. Prioritising cervical cancer as a health policy, committing to eliminating cervical cancer, and to developing a holistic strategy that improves and supports the cancer prevention programmes, can help stop cervical cancer.


You can play your part too. Get involved, show support on social media, tell your friends, go for screening. Join the campaign at: www.jostrust.org.uk/ccpw

Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust is the UK’s leading cervical cancer charity. It provides information and support to anyone affected and campaigns for excellence in cervical cancer treatment, care and prevention.

Ending cervical cancer means increasing awareness and uptake of the HPV vaccination and cervical screening. It also means action to help prevent even more cases and improve how we diagnose, treat and care for those living with and beyond cervical cancer. No one should be left behind.
