Advice and support on Cancer Screening

Diagnosing cancer at an early stage is important. Screening helps to diagnose or rule out cancer or other serious conditions at an early stage.

How you can reduce your risk of cancer

You can reduce your risk of cancer by leading a healthy lifestyle. This can be by:

  • Stopping smoking
  • Eating a healthy balanced diet
  • Protecting your skin from sun damage
  • Drinking less alcohol
  • Staying a healthy weight

To find out more about how you can reduce your risk of cancer and the support available, visit the NHS website and Cancer Research UK.
