Women who have missed a cervical screening appointment in England are to be offered HPV self-testing kits by the NHS. Over the next year, nearly 4 million will receive invites on the NHS App or via text message, email or letter to order a free kit to use at home. Figures show around a third of women who are eligible cervical cancer screening have not taken up the offer recently. The self-testing kits are designed to get more women checked for high-risk HPV virus, which causes nearly all cases of cervical cancer. Gem Sofianos-Boorman, 39, said her experience shows how important the screening is.

'What you see is what you pay' - why some US restaurants are banning tips Wine waiter Caroline Kraetzer earns $40 (£30) an hour, double what most service staff in San Francisco are paid but then it costs a lot to eat at her restaurant. At a set price of $140 (£100) per person, La Cigale is one of a small number of restaurants charging higher prices so it can pay high salaries - and it doesn't allow tips. It tells customers: What you see is what you pay. We do not accept tips, your kind words and return visits will suffice. Kraetzer says it is good to no longer be reliant on the generosity of strangers to pay the bills.

New 10p coin enters circulation - will you spot one? Something new might appear in your change when you pay in cash from now on: a 10p coin featuring the portrait of King Charles and the world's largest grouse.

The Royal Mint says shoppers and collectors should discover the coins, which were minted and dated in 2023 and 2026, across the country. The reverse side of the coin depicts an image of the capercaillie which is found in a small part of Scotland and threatened with extinction.

Ministers have announced where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years, in a bid to address the housing crisis. Funding has been granted to Greater Manchester, the West Midlands, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North East England, and Liverpool, as well as £6bn for London. It is the first part of a wider plan to build 300,000 social and affordable homes across the nation, under the government's £39bn social housebuilding programme. Housing charities welcomed the news but said it was still not enough to meet demand, while the Conservatives said it was an unfunded spending commitment. Of the new homes announced on Monday, 60% would be for social rent - which means the cost of the unit is about half that of market rents and there are strict criteria for who can apply for it.
