#Breastscreening saves lives, yet in 2022/23 only 69.5% of women invited for screening in #Wales attended their appointment – below the 70% minimum standard and well short of the 80% target. Had the 80% target been met, 15,871 more women would have been screened
and 154 additional cases of #breastcancer could have been detected earlier. We’ve launched a petition urging the Welsh Government to act now to support and resource @PublicHealthW and Breast Test Wales.
