A group, The Complete Woman has said it will organise a medical outreach for all categories of women in Lagos State to be sensitised to the prevention of life-threatening diseases common to the female gender.
The National President of the TCW, Mrs Tunrayo Falade, announced this in a statement made available to The PUNCH on Wednesday.
She said, “Concerns about health challenges confronting modern-day women have inspired the programme, and organisers have promised to bring qualified health practitioners to teach and create awareness on the most prevalent diseases among the women folk.
“In the world we live in today, a lot of women are coming down with different kinds of ailments and are losing their lives in large numbers on a daily basis. This is so either because they are not aware or they do not know how to manage these ailments.”
“The medical outreach tagged ‘Pathway to healthy living in times like these,’ is scheduled to take place at the Police College, Oba Akinjobi Way, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos on Saturday 26th of November, 2022 and would include cancer awareness; general health tips; question and answer session; physical exercise; free medical consultation and free drugs.”
According to the statement, among the guest speakers at the event is a breast cancer survivor who will share her story.
