The Royal Society of Health (RSH) is developing a national Human Papillomavirus (HPV) education programme to raise public understanding about HPV in spring 2008.

Health professionals, teachers, healthy schools co-ordinators, parents, young people, local government officers all have an essential role to play in this public health programme in creating a supportive educational and organizational environment for young people to take informed action to protect themselves against cervical cancer.

Professor Richard Parish, Royal Society of Health Chief Executive states;

"Immunisation and vaccination provide an essential tool in improving public health. However, success requires an investment not just in vaccine delivery, but also in the health promotion measures necessary to create a supportive educational and organizational environment. Education is not an 'add-on', but a pre-requisite."
