Catch up breast screening for women aged 70-79

Public Health England has identified that some women have not been invited for their final breast screen between their 68th and 71st birthdays.

Public Health England will write to all women who are affected, and who are registered with a GP, by the end of May 2018 to invite them for a screening before the end of October 2018.

If you think you are affected and are registered with a GP, you don’t need to do anything – you will receive a letter.  If you think you are affected and are not registered with a GP please ring 0800 169 2692 for advice.

More information will be published on  www.nhs.uk
