Women’s Health Programme
- Health and Wellbeing
Recent data indicates that Asian women aged 65 and above experience the highest incidence of limiting chronic illnesses, with a rate of 64.5%. This starkly contrasts the 53% observed among all women within the same age bracket.
In response, Three Meem assembled a team of specialists to develop a women-centric health program. Identified challenges encompass general health disparities, cancer screenings, cultural hesitations in seeking medical attention, mental health concerns, and a deficiency in support regarding healthy lifestyles and physical activity.
A dedicated team of healthcare experts from the community has volunteered to facilitate bi-monthly educational sessions to increase awareness among BAME women. Topics already addressed span female-specific cancers, bowel cancer, menopause management, gynaecological issues, and many more.
