BreastScreen Victoria with Mullum Mullum Gathering Place

February 12 - February 13

Free

Get your breasts checked with BreastScreen Victoria and Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place

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.

The BreastScreen mobile screening van will be visiting Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place on Monday 12 February and Tuesday 13 February. 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 Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place on (03) 9725 2166.

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 is ‘Women’s Circle Coming Together’ and designed by the Women’s Healing Group – Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place.

“The artwork illustrates and speaks to the healing power of Women coming together as they connect with Culture, Community and Country.”
