It’s very sad to see our Government intent on downgrading our Islands Breast Screening Program to be the same as the WORST in Europe!!! We have been proud to support a 2 Yearly Breast Screening Program on our Island . That is now due to a policy change by DHSC and Public Health about to become a 3 Yearly Breast Screening Service. This will seriously impact on the patients ( men get it too) chances of survival when diagnosed with Breast Cancer. HELP US HELP YOU - CONTACT YOUR MHK!!! WE ARE GOING TO DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO PREVENT THIS GOING THROUGH!
Every woman, and some men, use the Manx Breast Unit at some point in their life. This is a stupid backward step for our Island and the only reason it’s happening is to save money!!!!

My mum survived because they caught it on time. Lengthening the gap is just putting lives at risk for the sake of the budget. Leave it alone.

Breast screening found my cancer early. Treatment was quick and so was recovery . I was back to work in a few weeks.
