Young people need to prioritise their health and think about their future. We are not invincible.

Just because you are young, it doesn’t mean you cannot develop cervical cancer!

Staying up to date with screening is the best thing I can do to keep myself healthy.

The test may be a little bit unpleasant, but a few minutes now will potentially save your life.

Robyn, 26

My advice – do some research about what happens during a Cervical Screening Test.
