Prevention, awareness and sharing: a day truly “Sulla stessa barca” (In the Same Boat).
On 20 September, “Sulla stessa barca”, an initiative promoted by iGreen by IRSAP, took place.
A day dedicated to health at every stage: from prevention to diagnosis, from treatment to psychological support, highlighting the importance of sharing experiences and building a sense of community.
Alongside educational sessions and free breast examinations for IRSAP employees, the programme provided valuable tools and insights to help people navigate life following a diagnosis, whether related to cancer, a physical illness or a mental health condition.
The Hope team also shared their personal experiences. Made up of women who have faced a cancer diagnosis, the team now practises Dragon Boat not only as a rehabilitation activity, but also as an opportunity to foster a sense of belonging, mutual support and shared experience.
Together with them, participants had the opportunity to listen to personal stories, explore the role of personal coaching and take part in a Dragon Boat experience on the Canal Bianco.
Because taking care of our health also means this: preventing, facing challenges, sharing experiences and knowing that we are not alone along the way.
