Today we spoke to Dorothy du Plooy - from CANSA. She talked to us about the Peer Education Programme which aims to increase awareness and to provide gerneral knowledge on breast and vervical cancer. She said it's important for women to have sufficient information to make informed decisions and therfore should also know the value of early detection. Peer educators emphasis's on reaching women who might not normally access local health services and also target women aged 40 to 65 who had not been screened in the past five years.
