Public Health Wales (PHW) has allocated funding for two targeted breast screening engagement projects aimed at raising awareness of screening and addressing barriers to attendance. These projects are under development and are expected to be delivered later this year. Both PHW and Breast Test Wales consistently evaluate and implement strategies to promote participation. Public Health Wales tackles inequities across all screening programmes through its Screening Engagement Team, collaborating with groups and communities to better understand and address barriers and enablers to participation in screening.
