answer text <p>In February and March 2022, the ‘Help Us Help You – Cervical Screening Saves Lives’ campaign urged individuals not to ignore a cervical screening invitation and to contact their general practitioner if they missed their last invitation. In some Primary Care Networks, appointments can also be made in any primary care setting, including integrated sexual health clinics and at evenings and weekends. To support further improvements in uptake, an evaluation of the effectiveness of human papillomavirus self-sampling is being made, where individuals take their own cervical screening sample.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Care Act 2014 requires local authorities to deliver a range of sustainable high-quality care and support services, including for unpaid carers. Local authorities are required to undertake a Carer’s Assessment for any unpaid carer who appears to have a need for support and to meet their eligible needs on request from the carer.</p><p>Funding for respite and short breaks for carers is included in the National Health Service contribution to the Better Care Fund (BCF). In 2022/23, £291.7 million from the BCF is earmarked to provide short breaks and respite services and advice and support for carers under the Care Act. Legislation to introduce one week of leave for unpaid carers will be brought forward when Parliamentary time allows.</p><p>Many carers will be amongst the eight million low-income households in receipt of a means-tested benefit who will receive the £650 Cost of Living payment. Six million people in receipt of an eligible disability benefit will also receive the £150 Disability Cost of Living Payment, which includes carers in receipt of a qualifying benefit. The Pensioner Cost of Living Payment of £300 per household will be paid with the winter fuel payment this winter.</p>
