MARCH IS VULVAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH.

LATEST NEWS 12 bikers strip for VHAC! Devon biker Rob Blinkhorn of Mad About Motorcycles has produced a calendar of naked bikers on bikes to raise awareness and funds for VHAC. Rob's friend Sue has had vulval cancer twice and she said it was high time vulval cancer got a mention and a calendar. Sue says that even though vulval cancer is described as rare, that far too many women are dying each year because they do not know they can get cancer in their genital area. 1000 women a year die. To obtain your copy of the calendar, which costs £10 email Rob at robblinkhorn@blueyonder.co.uk
