DOHA: ‘Screen For Life’, Qatar’s National Breast and Bowel Cancer Screening programme, has launched a month-long bowel cancer awareness drive across Qatar’s major shopping malls under the tagline ‘Don’t wait for the symptoms’ to mark the international Bowel Cancer Awareness Month.

‘Screen For Life’ team will engage shoppers, specifically in the target age bracket of 50-74, to take a proactive approach to their health and book an appointment at one of the three dedicated facilities at Al Wakrah, Lebaib and Rawdat Al Khail Health Centers. The awareness booths will be positioned at Villagio Mall until March 10, Landmark Mall from March 11 to 20.
