Ambattur Rotary Hospital (ARH), in collaboration with the Rotary Cancer & Research Foundation, successfully conducted the Second Dose of the Cervical Cancer Vaccination Program on 11th September 2026.

The initiative was organised as part of ARH’s continued commitment to preventive healthcare and cancer awareness, with a special focus on protecting young girls against cervical cancer through timely HPV vaccination.

• Raise awareness about cervical cancer and its prevention.
