Rejected petition Lower the Breast screening age to 18

I want the age of breast screening to be lowered since doing this petition on change. I have received over 500 supporters. The age is getting younger.

More details

I have had messages of young people who have had breast cancer and they have all been below the age of 50. We have to start taking a step back and looking at the age range. Something needs to change.
