Take part in a study about cervical cancer screening services
30 Jul 2021
The study aims to understand more about engagement with cervical cancer screening (CCS) services during and after the COVID-19 pandemic
‘Vicky’ is a new digital online tool being developed by researchers at our University to help people manage the reasons why they may feel hesitant, delay or don’t go for a smear test when invited. We are looking for people to provide their views, opinions, feelings, and feedback about ‘Vicky’ so that we can make improvements to the tool.
