Home testing HPV kits will be offered to women in England as part of screening trial

More than 19000 women aged 25-64 who are 15 months overdue for a check to be sent kits. 12000 women who attend a GP appointment for another reason and are ≤6 months overdue will also be offered a kit. Research suggests embarrassment and fear are often causes of not testing.
