KUCHING: A free community health screening programme, ‘Jejak Kanser’, will be held this Saturday (November 22), to help raise awareness on cancer and encourage early detection.
According to a statement, the initiative is jointly organised by the Malaysian Red Crescent Society’s (MRC) Stampin Branch and Deemcee Saradise Kuching, in collaboration with the National Cancer Society Malaysia.
The programme will take place from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm at Tropics City, Jalan Tabuan Dayak, in front of Doremart.
The programme will offer lung and liver cancer risk assessments, breast cancer screening, and basic health screening, giving members of the public an opportunity to better understand their health status and seek early intervention where necessary.
