A digital bus to fight breast cancer at the Bergerac market

Volunteers will raise public awareness aboard the digital bus, loaned by the Bergerac Actions Solidarity Employment (Base) association. The goal? To combine health and online procedures (appointment booking, Améli account management). The initiative is supported by the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Regional Cancer Screening Coordination Center (CRCDC-NA).

Information, awareness, self-examination, and screening will be on the morning's agenda. A 2021 Ifop survey revealed that 47% of women do not know how to perform a self-examination. However, according to the French Health Insurance Agency, the earlier breast cancer is detected, the greater the chance of being cured, i.e., in "nine out of 10 cases."

"This action is an outstretched hand to all those who need help with their health," emphasizes the Base association.
