Cervical Cancer Awareness Month

News - 12 January 2024

Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance is encouraging people to take part in the campaign to #PreventCervicalCancer.

This January, join the Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance in the #PreventCervicalCancer campaign, dedicated to reducing the risk of developing cervical cancer.

You can get involved by taking these three simple steps:

  • Step one: Attending your cervical screening appointment
  • Step two: Be clued up about cervical cancer
  • Step three: Spread the word about cervical cancer

Support the campaign by sharing #PreventCervicalCancer posts on social media. Throughout January, Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance will be in supermarkets and community spaces, raising awareness and distributing valuable information.

Let's make a difference together. Find out more information on the Cervical Cancer Awareness Month webpage.
