Summary of the Breast Screening Pathway • Eligible population is women aged 50 to 70 years • Manchester eligible population is 45,973 women • One of the main benefits is from screening at regular intervals – the recommended interval is to invite every 3 years • The invite is not related to any woman’s date of birth. It is fixed to when the GP practice is invited. • Once every 3 years all the women in this age range registered with one GP practice are invited to attend for breast screening. • All promotional activities are most appropriate/effective when they are coordinated with each GP 3 year round. • Each woman will have received an invitation by the time she is 53 years of age. • Women over the age of 70 are not invited but can request an appointment every 3 years • National study into benefits/harms of extending the invitation for screening to women aged 47 to 73.

These are not cancers, but may develop into cancers over time. They can easily be removed, reducing the risk of bowel cancer developing. • The NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme offers screening every two years to all men and women aged 60 to 74. People over 75 can request a screening kit by calling the freephone helpline 0800 707 6060 • Target for coverage is 60%
