Ardara GAA Club is hosting a Cancer Awareness Day at their grounds this Friday.
The event will run from 10 am to 1 pm, in association with the Marie Keating Foundation.
The foundation’s mobile unit (main pic) will be at Pearse Memorial Park (F94 V978) to give advice and raise cancer awareness for everyone on the day.
The Marie Keating Foundation has three purpose-built mobile information units which travel around Ireland to bring their life-saving messages of prevention and early detection to as many people as possible.
The unit, which is staffed by a specialist nurse, is stocked with take-home information leaflets and packs on the various cancers.
The nurse can talk to people in a private area on board about any concerns that they may have about cancer, either for themselves or for someone else such as a family member or friend.
