Marie Surgelés organized information sessions on Tuesday, October 29 to raise awareness about breast cancer prevention.
The leader of the League Against Cancer, present at Marie Surgelés, said: “ There is one committee per department. That of Deux-Sèvres has a budget of €500,000. It’s not much but it works on volunteers and does not ask for any subsidies. The department has three branches, Niort and the Parthenay and Bressuire hospitals. The town of Thouars would like an antenna but is looking for volunteers. »
The missions of the committees
In January 2025, the League will make a donation of €120,000 to the Nord Deux-Sèvres hospital in Faye-l’Abbesse for the drug cam (personalized chemotherapy dosage using artificial intelligence). “ We are the 2e department where we provide the most well-being care and support for patients and caregivers (psychology, sophrology, reflexology, socio-aesthetics, head massage, etc.) “. The facilitator recalled the importance of screening and explained how to perform palpation to self-monitor.
The committees of the League against Cancer carry out prevention in companies, like Marie Surgelés, but also in colleges.
The host specifies: We are responsible for our internal factory. Cancer cells are present in us. We develop them through our lifestyle.
We can avoid 40% of cancers by paying attention to a sedentary lifestyle but also alcohol, tobacco, drugs, overweight and obesity, unbalanced diet and especially excesses of all kinds.
