How to access your breast screening records

You can request your breast screening records at any time.

Your breast screening records include:

  • your test results
  • breast clinic attendances
  • treatments you've had

You can also access screening records if you are:

  • the next of kin of someone who has died
  • a solicitor representing someone who has used the screening service, or their next of kin

Request your records

To get your breast screening records you'll need to send us a request by email or post.

Your request should say which records you want.

You can request:

  • only specific records

The request should also include your:

  • name
  • address
  • date of birth
  • phone number
  • photo ID - a photocopy or a scan of your passport, driver's license or public services card

We'll let you know when we get your request. We'll contact you if we need any more information.
