The 2012 tour is fast approaching and preparations are underway to make this journey not only bigger and better in terms of distance covered, number of riders but our awareness team are looking to increase the number of women and men screened during the journey compared to last year. However we remain adamant that Pink Caravan continues to reach the rural community and revisiting the screening centers we visited last year as well as spreading out to new locations along the proposed 2012 route.
The Pink Caravan’s mobile clinics received a huge public response from citizens and residents, alike, on the 6th day of the campaign activities. The medical teams managed to examine over 600 applicants in Dreamland’s clinics in Umm Al Quwain and at the Outlet Mall in Dubai on Friday 6th of April.
The awareness teams held mini workshops for female applicants, where the teams explained the method of self-examination and the necessity of early detection and regular examination. The lectures were highly regarded by attendees.
