More awareness means more women seeking help early.

[Palliative Care Association of Uganda (PCAU) @PCAUganda]

Uganda stands as Africa's leading country in palliative care development and remains the only African country classified at the advanced level globally.

Yet more than 500,000 Ugandans require palliative care every year, while many still struggle to access the support they need.
Today, the handover of 11 ambulances strengthens efforts to close this gap and bring quality care closer to patients, families, and communities across the country. -@ConsueloGrace the General Secretary PCAU Board

Leadership matters when it translates into access, dignity, and compassionate care for all.

Breast cancer awareness begins with understanding what breast cancer really is and why early detection matters.
