Dear Everyone,
We regret to inform you that our programme for February 8th ('One walk - One hope') has been changed due to unavoidable circumstances. As schools and colleges will remain closed up until the 9th, we have not been able to contact the authorities concerned with regards to their participation in the walk.
Hence, in conjunction with the TTDC we have decided to set up stalls at the Tourism and Trade Fair (currently underway at the Island Grounds) in order to spread awareness and mark National Cancer Awareness Day.
The installation at the stall will also have representations from other cancer support groups in the city and will offer information on various types of cancer and their treatment, as well as information for cancer patients,survivors and their families encompassing counseling, physical therapy, alternative therapies and dietary advice.
On display will also be a photo exhibit on the ills of smoking and advice on tobacco cessation. Pamphlets will be handed out by Canstop volunteers to the general public covering all the aspects listed above.
The TTDC expects approximately 35,00 people to attend the trade fair over the course of the day and we look forward to being able to reach a large number of people on the occasion of National Cancer Awareness Day
We hope you find it convenient to attend the Tourism and Trade Fair and can visit Canstop's stall at the fair.For any further enquiries please contact us on 2628-4256 (helpline) or on 98410-61578.
Venue: Island Grounds, Anna Salai
