Details
Volunteers from Covilhã's Vencer de Viver Movement marked World Cancer Day at the Pero da Covilhã Hospital - ULS Cova da Beira.
Vencer e Viver is a mutual aid movement that aims to support all women, their families and friends from the moment they are diagnosed with breast cancer. It is based on personal contact between a woman who is experiencing a particularly vulnerable situation and a volunteer who has experienced a similar situation.
