Our awareness stand in Metlika will create a space for information and open conversations about gynaecological cancers. Visitors can learn about prevention, HPV vaccination and possible signs and symptoms, while women already diagnosed can find information about treatment and support. The activity is part of our Purple September campaign, with this year’s slogan “Take Care of Your Essential Parts” (“Poskrbi za svoje nepogrešljive kose”). It is one of 22 activities across Slovenia raising awareness and helping break stigma.
