@drazizasesay What a magnificent lot! Biggest thank you for all you do 👏❤️

@drazizasesay “Often language is the biggest barrier.” So why not use the word WOMAN when trying to persuade women to come for a cervical smear? Baffling.

@drazizasesay They know they are women. Obscure language is not helpful.

@drazizasesay Who is your target audience? Can men attend cervical smears too, or do you assume men won’t take any notice of a message spoken by women?

@drazizasesay I really support your intention, by the way. It’s just very disappointing to see women doctors who appear too frightened to use the word “woman” while talking to women.

@drazizasesay These videos from @TranslateIrl may be helpful also - while they refer to the Irish system, they may useful resources in UK too
