Declining Cancer Screening Participation in England Raises Concerns
Cancer screening programs in England detected almost 90,000 cancers (62,000 breast, 23,000 bowel, 4,400 cervical) between 2019 and 2023, but participation rates are declining, particularly for breast (65%) and cervical (69%) cancers, prompting calls for improved access and digital enhancements.
