On Wednesday 2nd July 2025, the Chair of Jersey Cancer Relief, Anne Pryke, was honoured to be invited to open the new breast screening unit at the Enid Quenault Health and Wellbeing Centre which was able to open following a significant donation made by the charity.

This new unit will allow enhancements to be made to the breast screening service as part of a project to ensure that by the end of 2027, all eligible women will be automatically called up for breast screening rather than having to inform Health and Care Jersey (HCJ) that they would like to be screened. 

The project was only possible thanks to a new £255,000 mammography machine paid for by The John Clive Le Seelleur Trust, and a donation of over £500,000 from Jersey Cancer Relief to fund the staff within the unit. 

Since it opened in November, about 3,000 people have been screened in the new unit and feedback has been overwhelmingly positive with 100% of the 103 people who responded to an online survey rating their overall experience as ‘very good’ (94) or ‘good’ (8). One respondent said: “The lady who did my screening was lovely as are all staff in the mammography department on past appointments”.

The  official opening was attended by Jersey Cancer Relief committee members along with the Assistant Ministers for Health; Deputies Rose Binet and Barbara Ward, HCJ Chief Officer Tom Walker and representatives from HCJ, ABC Jersey and Macmillan Jersey.
