For GPs:
You will be contacted by the programme approximately six weeks before screening starts for eligible women at your practice. You will be sent a pack containing information about the activity for the practice at the previous screening round along with a request for information from you about any women who may not be eligible for screening.
We have Cancer Screening Improvement Leads based within the programme who are available for sessions to help with improving uptake for the practice. We would encourage you to contact them before undertaking any uptake initiatives so that they can help and inform.
For any training queries please go to -
the National Breast Imaging Academy website.
The programme also works with
Answer Cancer to improve awareness and engagement with breast screening. Please see
the Answer Cancer website for more information.
