Jerilderie women to receive free mammograms this week

A mammogram can pick-up cancers that cannot be seen or felt and BreastScreen NSW director Debbie Lattimore said it is one of the most important diagnostic tools for women aged 50 to 74.

She said the mobile van's aim is to make it easier for women to attend their recommended two-yearly screening.

The van is parked at Civic Hall, behind the council chambers and opposite Lions Park, with entry via Powell Street. No referral is needed.

Phone ahead to book your mammogram by phoning 13 20 50, or book online at book.breastscreen.nsw.gov.au.

Year round screening services are available at BreastScreen NSW clinics at Albury, Wagga Wagga and Griffith.
