  • Hello and thanks for posting,

    You asked about booking a mammogram over the age of 75. You can request one via your local NHS breast screening service.

    You can do this by going on to the NHS Breast Screening Service website. There you enter your home postcode. They will list the nearest breast screening service to you with contact details. You call them and they will advise you of where to go to get screened, and this is usually a mobile screening unit in your area.

    I hope that this reply helps,

    Best wishes,
