Story

Transforming Lives: The Cancer Detection Mobile Van (CDMV) Journey

A silent battle rages on in the heart of Gujarat, where vibrant cultures and traditions thrive. Cancer, a formidable adversary, often goes undetected until it's too late. But hope is on the horizon, and it comes as a Cancer Detection Mobile Van (CDMV).

A Lifeline on Wheels

Our campaign aims to bring the power of early cancer detection to the people of Rajkot, Porbandar, and Wadhwan City in Gujarat. Partnering with the Rajkot Cancer Hospital and the government, the CDMV will be a lifeline on wheels, extending its capacity for service delivery beyond fixed clinics.

Community Access, Convenience, and Awareness

"This initiative is about more than just healthcare; it's about changing lives."

The CDMV will take healthcare to the people. Attending cancer awareness camps will increase community access, offering screenings in convenient locations. This reduces travel time and distance, ensuring that healthcare reaches those most need it. Moreover, it creates awareness in nearby villages and rural areas, dispelling myths and fostering a culture of early detection.

Leicester's Special Connection to the Region

Leicester, a city known for its diversity and inclusive spirit, shares a special bond with the people of Gujarat. Over the years, this connection has grown stronger through cultural exchanges, collaborations, and the goodwill of the local community. The Rotary Club of Leicester, under the leadership of President Tara Pankhania, is committed to extending this friendship by supporting the CDMV project.

"Leicester's ties with Gujarat run deep, and we are honoured to be part of this transformative endeavour."
