Resources: Cancer screening for people experiencing homelessness
The NHS North Central London Cancer Alliance has developed a cancer screening campaign, Your Health First, for people experiencing homelessness (PEH). The aim is to increase awareness of the three national cancer screening programmes (bowel, breast, cervical), the importance of screening and how to participate. We also want to ensure anyone not registered with a GP can do so if they can provide an address where their screening invitations could be sent. We are also reminding people to make sure their contact details are up to date so they can continue to be invited.
