The Gynaecology Nursing Team at The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust (RWT) set up the clinic in August to help staff fit cervical screening tests into their schedules. It is one of the ways the organisation supports staff health and wellbeing.

The staff clinics are held monthly at New Cross Hospital. Staff can book the test through email once they had received their NHS invite.

A total of 89 members of staff have attended the new clinic since it was launched.

Tina Wellsbury, a bone density scanner at RWT, said: ‘The process was so easy to do and I could pick a time which suited my shift that day.

‘I normally work 7am until 4pm so getting to the GP practice after 4pm for an appointment is really difficult and there are often long waits. So to be able to get the test done so quickly at work was fantastic.'

Figures show cervical cancer is the 14th most common cancer in women in the UK, with about 3,300, external new cases every year.
