For every 200 women screened 1 life will be saved
The Jarvis Breast Centre provides one of the largest NHS breast screening services in England, for women living in Surrey and North East Hampshire.
All women between 50 and 71 years of age will be invited for a screening appointment. Not all women will be invited as soon as they are 50 but they will receive an appointment before their 53rd birthday. The list of women to invite is compiled from GP records, so it is important to make sure your details are correct at your GP practice. The invitation is sent out automatically.
