Each day in Britain six women die of an illness that, if caught in time, can almost always be cured. Screening for cervical cancer takes minutes.
Treatment can usually be done in a single morning. So why are the death rates so high? And what can be done to reduce them? That's what you can find out in a week of information and help on all aspects of the disease, beginning today with the results of an exclusive survey of over 1,000 listeners. A helpline will be operating through the week. See Info pages for details.
