Sunway Medical Centre Velocity highlights cancer awareness through its fourth anniversary event

KUALA LUMPUR: Sunway Medical Centre Velocity (SMCV) is celebrating its four-year anniversary with the #Here4You campaign, focusing on raising cancer awareness and advocating for early detection and prevention. The center is committed to supporting patients on their journey to healthier lives.

In honor of the milestone, SMCV has organized a three-day event at Sunway Velocity Mall to engage and educate the community about proactive cancer health measures. The event will feature various exciting activities, including a “Grip for Good: Fighting Cancer Together” human claw machine, a “Beat The Time, Beat Cancer” wind chamber challenge, “Toss the Cell” and “Be Fast, Catch It Early” games, as well as lucky draws. Participating vendors from the mall, such as Nando’s, MiXue, JuiceWorks, and Eureka Popcorn, will also be present to enhance the carnival atmosphere.

Families with children can also enjoy the event as there will be fun activities like sand art and candle making at the KidzB corner. Additionally, attendees will have the opportunity to explore relevant screening packages and visit vendor booths from non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like the National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) and the National Transplant Resource Centre. These organizations will provide insights into cancer and a holistic overview of the disease.

On September 23, SMCV consultants will be available to speak with attendees who want to learn more about specific cancers and other health concerns. They can answer questions about diseases, screenings, preventions, and treatment options. Specialists in various fields, including obstetrics and gynecology, fertility, psychiatry, and cardiothoracic surgery, will be present.

In addition, SMCV will offer free health checks throughout the weekend at a dedicated corner. Attendees can obtain information about their health levels and take steps to improve their well-being. To promote heart health, SMCV will partner with Viatris to present an inflatable heart exhibition where guests can learn more about cardiovascular health and its importance.

Everyone is invited to participate in this weekend event, which aims to promote learning and cancer awareness. The event will take place from September 22-24 at Sunway Velocity Mall’s Level 1, V Boulevard, from 10 am to 10 pm. For more information, contact 03 9772 9191 or email [email protected].
