Quotes

"If you go to your GP and the GP says 'well there may be something of concern here (but) it may not be very important' you don't go away and forget about it" he said
John, who has four children and 16 grandchildren, said: "I feel quite humble. It's very unexpected. I grew up in Alsager, ran a business there for 35 years, and still live there today. I just feel strongly about Alsager and wanted to give something back. I've also been involved in different organisations over the years, including the Round Table and Rotary. It's my life."
He added: "The exact causes behind this change are not clear cut, they could relate to increases in screening uptake among these groups of women, which have in the past been shown to be lower than in other groups."
He adds that misunderstanding is also rife among women aged 70 years and over, saying, "we would like to see more GP surgeries making patients in this age group aware that they can, and should, make their own regular breast screening appointments."
