As the world marks Breast Cancer Awareness month, the Standard Group Women Network organised free screening for its members as part of its efforts to educate members on the disease.

The two-day screening began on Wednesday, and is to be completed on Thursday.

During the screening, participants interacted with health experts and a cancer survivor who shed more light on the symptoms, treatment and caregiving for cancer patients.

Participants of this event were urged to go for early screening and detection to help in the fight against cancer.
