Beautiful Shawl Project with Goranwarrabul House
October 8
Get your breasts checked with Goranwarrabul House and BreastScreen Victoria.
Get your breasts checked and protect yourself against breast cancer. Put your health centre stage by getting a free breast screen every two years from age 50. Regular breast screens are the best way to find breast cancer early and when treatment is most likely to be successful.
Gorranwarrabul House are coordinating bookings on BreastScreen Victoria mobile screening van on Tuesday 8th October. Your free breast screen will be done in a culturally safe environment with a female radiographer and will only take 10 minutes.
For more information contact Gorranwarrabul House on 0429 555 250.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women will receive a FREE beautiful shawl (below) to use during the screening that they can keep afterwards.
The artwork on this beautiful shawl ‘Bujil and Waa’ designed by the talented Taungurung artist, Aunty Joanne Honeysett.
“Bunjil and Waa are the moieties of Taungurung women, they keep us safe and keep us protected.”
