This makes them less likely to benefit from earlier diagnosis. Faith-based cancer communications provide an acceptable strategy for addressing screening barriers. Hence, we evaluated the impact of a faith-based intervention on knowledge, attitudes, and breast, cervical and colorectal (bowel) screening practices of Muslim women in the UK. Our intervention was a co-designed, peer-led, two-hour workshop informed by the Integrated Screening Action Model (I-SAM) and 3R religiously-tailored messaging model, included peer-led discussions about cancer screening, GP-led education on screening, testimonials from Muslim women, and a female religious-scholar led didactic on Islamic perspectives on screening.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In 2024, as part of a non-randomised feasibility and efficacy trial, the workshop was co-delivered 16 times, face-to-face or online, with 169 Muslim women in Glasgow and North-East England who were not up-to-date with at least one screening programme. Consistent with I-SAM, outcomes included screening knowledge, attitudes, intentions and self-reported uptake measured at baseline, post-intervention, and 6-and 12-months. Changes from baseline were evaluated with paired tests. Linear regression was used to assess associations with socio-demographic and attitudinal covariates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Participants were aged 25\u201374 (mean 47), and 128 (76.6%) identified as South Asian.

Some attitudes changed significantly (e.g., risk perception), although others did not (e.g., worry about male providers).
