Flash your undies! ~ A metaphorical flash mob for a photo shoot to raise awareness for the Gynaecological Health Awareness campaign. We’ll be meeting at the giant sculpture at Elizabeth Quay at 2pm.
(and no, you don’t have to actually flash your undies!!)

Kath Mazzella OAM, advocate for GYNae health, is asking for your help to create some excitement and support for GLAM Day – Gynaecological Leadership and Awareness Movement – on 10 September.
So many women suffer from difficult GYNae issues and we want to lift the skirts on the secrecy.  From fibroids to endometriosis to polycystic ovarian syndrome to infertility.   
If we don’t talk about it then we can’t start to fix it.
We’d love as many people there as possible so please invite all your friends.
Please dress in red, white and/or black.

Even if you can’t make the event we’d love you to click “interested” in the event.

#GAINInc #women #gynaecology #GYNaware #GYNcancer

 

I stood loud and proud yesterday after presenting at the GAIN Inc. event. Catherine Aurubind and the team did a fantastic job bringing Gynaecologist and women together to knowledge and women’s stories. share their stories. This is what GAIN has been since it was founded in 2000. It is the way of the future. I sit back and watch it all come together as we all head towards more people celebrating the International Gynaecological Awareness campaign

International Gynaecological Awareness Day Progress

by

After our meeting on 12th July 2018 with the President of the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology and the Vice-President of Global Health to discuss their support of the International Gynaecological Awareness Day (IGAD) campaign.  I am more than elated to say they have agreed to celebrate IGAD.

A short history: Jeanette Preston (UK Founder of Pants Cancers) and myself as cancer survivors visited the college in 2008 to seek support for IGAD which was the planted seed to see this day come to fruition.  So I encourage others to join in the campaign to help share greater education and acceptance as said by the President that Gynaecological Health should not be TABOO.  Thanking all those who have supported in the past.
