Cervical Screening

Cervical Screening Information

Cervical screening saves lives because it allows us to find changes in the cervix before they develop into something more serious and before you may have symptoms. It tests for Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), which is the most common cause of cervical cancer.

The test is free, takes around five minutes and is offered to women and people with a cervix aged 25 to 64.

If you have not received your invite please contact the surgery and speak to one of our reception team who will be more than happy to book this for you.

RSV 3

RSV Vaccine

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an RNA virus which is a common cause of respiratory tract infections. It usually causes a mild self-limiting respiratory infection in adults and children but can be severe in infants and older adults who are at increased risk of acute lower respiratory tract infection. 

RSV infects up to 90% of children within the first 2 years of life and frequently reinfects older children and adults.

For most people, RSV infection causes a mild respiratory illness with a range of symptoms such as rhinitis (runny nose, sneezing or nasal congestion), cough, shortness of breath, fever, lethargy and decreased appetite.

An RSV vaccine should be offered to:

  • adults aged 75 years old on or after 1 September 2024, who remain eligible until their 80th birthday
  • all pregnant women from 28 weeks’ gestation

Eligible individuals will have been born on or after 1 September 1949 and become eligible on their birthday (not before).
