It’s a reminder for anyone who has missed their smear test over the last few months to make sure they get one sorted as soon as possible.

However, Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust says those who are self-isolating should not book until their isolation period is complete. And anyone who is shielding should follow the government guidance specific to where they live.

You can find out how to book a smear test on the NHS website. Alternatively, call your GP to arrange an appointment.

If you’re feeling anxious, we put the most common questions about smear tests to a doctor – and her answers were truly reassuring. You can check them out here.

Or, you can find more information on the Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust website.
