Women invited to mobile breast screening at Trumpington Park and Ride

A mobile breast screening unit which aims to make it easier for women to take up their appointment for breast screening is operating from the Trumpington Park and Ride site in Cambridge.

The unit will be able to see around 240 women each week who will already have received an invitation for an appointment.

It is supported by the Cambridge Breast Unit at Addenbrooke’s, the county council and retailer John Lewis.

Please note: screening is only available to women already in receipt of an invitation letter.
