CANSA announced as official partner for Sexpo 2016
10th Anniversary of Sexpo to raise cancer awareness



 

Now in its 10th year, Sexpo, Africas largest human sensuality and lifestyle expo, and one of South Africas favourite annual exhibitions, is back. Its 2016 incarnation sees a new date, new venue and the introduction of some new touches, including a partnership with the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA).

Sean Newman, managing director, Sexpo,We are very proud of our partnership with CANSA. This being our 10th anniversary, and with CANSA on board as our CSI partner it showcases how Sexpo has come of age and takes health seriously.


Says Elize Joubert, CANSA CEO, We aim to offer visitors and exhibitors the opportunity to understand the different forms of cancer, specifically linked to sexual behaviour, by providing information and creating awareness regarding the two top female cancers as well as the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Its all about lowering the cancer risk as much through education and offering screening.

 

 On top of all the fun at Sexpo 2016, CANSAs Mobile Health Clinic will be on hand to provide health information and screening such as clinical breast and skin examinations as well as offering healthy lifestyle risk assessments to Sexpo visitors. CANSA will also be on-hand to answer any health related queries visitors may need answered.
