Our first walk in cervical screening clinic of 2026 is in Selby. 🗓️ Thursday 15th January 2026 ⏰ 4pm to 7pm 📍Selby War Memorial Hospital January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. Cervical screening can detect changes early, often before symptoms appear, and is one of the most effective ways to prevent cervical cancer. Every day, two women die of cervical cancer in UK, yet nearly all cases of cervical cancer are preventable. All you need to come to our clinic: ✅ To have received your reminder (now sent via the NHS app) ✅ Your NHS number Here’s what some recent attendees have said about our service: ❤️ All of the team are so friendly and welcoming - really made me feel at ease. ❤️ Excellent service with fab staff. ❤️ Super reassuring and calmed my nerves. Super quick and informative. ❤️ I had my first smear test today and had the most positive experience. The nurse was wonderful and very reassuring — she made sure I was talked through everything and felt comfortable. I can’t thank them enough! We also offer booked cervical screening appointments if that suits you better - just give our team a call on 01904 721111 and we’ll get you sorted. Not due yet? Keep an eye out for our other walk in clinics throughout 2026. We hope to see you soon!
