The Women's Heart Bus in Calais

203 women in vulnerable situations were screened and received advice on cardio-gynecological prevention during the Calais leg of the Women's Heart Bus, from May 3 to 5. During this wonderful stopover, warmth was in everyone's hearts and eyes. It was a positive, caring atmosphere, with supportive teams at the service of women who need it most. It was their day, just for them. The teams saved lives and gave meaning to all of them, setting up a virtuous healthcare network to serve women.
