Jordan sits down with Stephanie Houghton-Johns, a social media director from Warrington who’s all about breaking the stigma around cervical screenings. Stephanie gets it - the nerves, the avoidance, the awkwardness - and speaks with warmth, honesty and a whole lot of heart about how she approaches the process. It’s a supportive, relatable, and gently empowering listen for anyone who’s ever put off making that appointment.

For more information about NHS cervical screening in general, please visit Cervical screening - NHS . It's also important to be aware of any new or worrying symptoms. Although it's unlikely to be cancer, it's important to contact your GP practice so they can investigate. Finding cancer early usually means it's easier to treat.
