Women with learning disabilities in Swindon and Wiltshire are missing out on getting a vital cervical screening, figures suggest. Cervical cancer charity Jo s Trust says a lack of accessible information for people with disabilities and awareness among some healthcare professionals are just some of the potential reasons fuelling low uptake nationally. Women aged 25 to 49 are invited for screening every three years, while those aged 50 to 64 receive invitations every five years. NHS Digital data shows that of 29 women with registered learning disabilities who were eligible for a cervical screening in the NHS Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire CCG area, just one received the health check in 2019-20.
