Healthwatch Kirklees has worked in partnership with (Third Sector Leaders) Community Champions to reach over 2000 people to tackle:

• Cervical screening and cervical cancer risk factors/symptoms awareness

• The challenges and barriers to accessing cervical screening services and support

In this report, you’ll find information about:

• Community-specific strategies addressing barriers and concerns raised around cervical screening. Recommendations to:
  • Collaborate with local leaders and organisations for culturally sensitive approaches, including multilingual and accessible resources.
  • Develop campaigns targeting different age groups to address barriers, specific fears and practical issues.
• Collaborative Healthcare Networks. Recommendations to:
  • Provide additional cervical screening support for Health Inclusion Groups and ensure that vulnerable populations receive targeted support and information.
  • Collaborate with local voluntary and support organisations to provide specialised assistance for those needing it.
