Put off your cancer screening invite because you're busy or feel fine?
Screening can help identify problems before symptoms appear, giving you peace of mind.
Some things are too important to put off. Get screened.

As part of Get Online Week (19 to 25 October), libraries in the North East and North Yorkshire are joining forces with the NHS to help people build the skills and confidence they need to get online.

Library staff and volunteers at participating branches will be running drop-in sessions throughout the week to help people sign up and learn how to use the NHS App.

This week, Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance and @eskimediauk have launched a campaign to raise awareness of cancer, encourage prevention and increase early diagnosis to help local residents to live longer, healthier lives.

The campaign, ‘Get Ahead of Cancer’ will run until March 2027 and aims to raise awareness of five of the most common cancers: bowel, breast, cervical, lung and prostate.

The first strand of the campaign focuses on signs and symptoms of cancer, what to look out for, recognising changes in your body and contacting your GP to get further support or reassurance.
