For me, this week started with a trip to the doctors for a routine smear test.
I can already hear some of you saying "too much information!" However, there is nothing nasty about looking after your health!

I wanted to remind people how vital cervical screening is. If you're between 25 and 64 and have a cervix, it is so important to have regular smear tests, as they are one of the best ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer.

And I wanted this to serve as a reminder that, despite COVID, you can and should still access the NHS for routine appointments. So if you're overdue a smear test, go and make an appointment! #NoFearGoSmear
