University of Health and Allied Sciences (UHAS) Ghana shows us how they #Jump4June! They used the IGCS toolkit to download the #UCAM logo to make T-shirts locally. What a beautiful video compilation. Ellen Mensa-Bonsu, who submitted this video is a physiotherapist. In this video, she gathered physiotherapy students to engage in play activities that involved jumping.
Uterine cancer is on the rise worldwide, and that makes awareness and survivor support more important than ever. One powerful way to support survivors is through movement—both symbolically and physically. Exercise can help reduce risk, improve recovery, and build community among those affected. Whether it’s a walk, a jump, or a dance, every move is a step toward healing and empowerment. #Jump4June reminds us that action—big or small—can uplift survivors and spark conversations that save lives.
