SIC Ladies Association (SICLA) has lined up a series of activities to mark this year’s breast cancer awareness month.
To deepen awareness of breast cancer, SICLA which is an all-female workers’ association of SIC Insurance PLC, will carry out free breast screening at SIC’s Bob Freeman Clinic throughout October except on Sundays.
Themed “Catch it early; treat it; survive it!”, the exercise is intended to detect early signs of breast cancer.
The President of SICLA, Muriel Ashong, says “early detection saves lives and reduces the burden on patients and their families.”
She therefore urged women to take advantage of the breast screening exercise at the Bob Freeman Clinic near SIC’s Head Office in Osu, Accra.
On Saturday 11, October 2025, SICLA is also organising what is described as a Pinky Breeze Health Walk starting at 7:30 am from Nyemitei House Head Office to create more awareness.
The walk will end at Laboma Beach in Accra, where SICLA will continue breast screening till 3 pm.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is an international health campaign that’s held every October. The month aims to promote screening and reduce the risk of the disease, which affects 2.3 million women worldwide.
Known best for its pink theme colour, the month features a number of campaigns and programs designed to support people diagnosed with breast cancer, including those with metastatic breast cancer and educate people about breast cancer risk factors among others.
