UAE residents can receive complimentary breast cancer screenings this October through Pink Caravan, a breast cancer awareness initiative by Sharjah-based charity Friends of Cancer Patients (FOCP). The 2026 campaign runs from October 1 to 31, with over 75 clinic activations across all seven emirates.
Fixed clinics will be located at Mushrif Mall, Al Ain Mall, City Walk, Al Majaz Waterfront, Al Dhaid Mall, Mall of UAQ, RAK Mall, and Lulu Mall. Mobile clinics will travel to residential neighborhoods, shopping destinations, universities, workplaces, and government entities during the month.
Workplace screenings are also available, with organizations able to book a Pink Caravan clinic for their premises or host an Employee Wellness Day. Educational workshops and community activities will be held at the Aljada Community Event in Sharjah from October 2 to 4.
Early detection of breast cancer is crucial for improving outcomes, and this year's campaign aims to make screening more accessible and to involve families and communities in prioritizing women's health. Those requiring further investigation after screening will be referred to medical partners such as Advanced Care Oncology Center, Zulekha Hospital, University Hospital Sharjah, NMC Royal Hospital Sharjah, and Canadian Hospital.
