Bowel cancer is more treatable when it’s found early – and knowing the symptoms can save lives. If something doesn’t feel right, contact your GP. It’s always better to get checked. Visit @bowelcanceruk for more information and support. #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth

If something in your body doesn’t feel right, don’t carry the worry of cancer with you. Tests could put your mind at rest. Until you find out, you can’t rule it out. Contact your GP practice. ➡️nhs.uk/cancersymptoms

Did you know your cervical screening could save your life? Cervical screening helps prevent cervical cancer by detecting HPV and abnormal cells, which can then be treated if needed. When invited by the NHS, book your appointment.

Some cervical screening results are now being sent through the NHS App. If your result is normal, you’ll receive it securely in the app. You’ll still get a letter in the post if you don’t have the app, or if more tests are needed.

The first sign of a stroke might not seem like much. Like - struggling to smile. But any sign of a stroke is always an emergency. Face or arm or speech, at the first sign, it's time to call 999 nhs.uk/actFast

Remember F.A.S.T for the signs of a stroke. Face – has their face fallen on one side? Can they smile? Arms – can they raise both arms and keep them there? Speech – is it slurred? Time – it’s time to call 999. When stroke strikes remember to Act F.A.S.T. nhs.uk/actFAST

Getting vaccinated while you’re pregnant helps protect your baby in the first few months of their life, when they are too young to be vaccinated themselves. Speak to your midwife or GP about vaccines in pregnancy, or visit the NHS webpage to learn more 👉nhs.uk/pregnancy/keepingwell…
