Reduce Smear Tests from every 5 years to every 3 years in Scotland.

The Issue

The cervical smear test has been changed from every 3 years to every 5 years in Scotland. Cervical screening is currently every 3 years in England. This needs reduced to give the Scottish woman a chance of beating cervical cancer by receiving treatment sooner. 

If a test is found to be abnormal then the woman in Scotland can get the treament they require sooner potentially saving their lives. 

The Scottish Government have the power to reduce cervical screening and protect woman against cervical cancer. 

We need every woman in Scotland to sign this petiton. Not just woman....We need husbands, partners, fathers, brothers, cousins, uncles and friends to sign this petition and try and make a difference. This WILL save lives.
