The plight of women and cancer patients is something worth highlighting and is part of the outreach and awareness initiatives of the organisation, he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is one of the many things that is taken for granted in life. We are quick to accept things. The plight of cancer patients and women is something we wanted to highlight and bring forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While they had received more than 360 pre-registrations for the free walk, the lower turnout was attributed to the violence experienced during the taxi strike. \u201cThis has been very successful under the circumstances. The spirit and vibe this year was great,\u201d Carstens added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently diagnosed with myeloma, proportional representative (PR) councillor in the City of Cape Town Judy-Ann Stevens shared her journey and a motivation with those attending the event. Having broken her wrist in April, a trip to the doctor revealed a complete bombshell. \u201cWhen the doctor told me I went lame. All that stuck with me was that I am going to die. I think death and cancer are associated in people\u2019s minds, but I want to say this is not the case. It is a tough journey, but each one\u2019s journey is unique,\u201d she said at the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stevens encouraged those who have anyone in their lives diagnosed with cancer to show them the extra bit of love and support. \u201cDo not take your health for granted. If your body is telling you something is wrong, go to the doctor \u2013 even if you feel this is your last R500 and you can\u2019t spend it on a doctor, go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs women, we tend to look after our children and husbands first and then Google our symptoms. That is what I did. For a long time, my body told me something was not right and I did not listen or go to the doctor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event started with a Zumba warm up and concluded with lucky draws. The youngest participant was four months old, with the oldest being Carstens at 80.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Images\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_e7fa0664\">\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/cf663cb4e5714f83b1ab809d85ee5915.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/d2f06252974142cb95f32def38e4e04b.jpg\" title=\"Leatitia Fortuin had her head shaved after the walk.\"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">Leatitia Fortuin had her head shaved after the walk.<\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\">Samantha Lee-Jacobs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/0e09d2ad442d4e38b24aeb490a909dc6.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/ab5865848c7c4fada32f0fe388761e0a.jpg\" title=\"Elsabe Augustus, Christine Baar, Megan Williams and Priscilla Mumba from Hairlines joined the walk.\"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">Elsabe Augustus, Christine Baar, Megan Williams and Priscilla Mumba from Hairlines joined the walk.<\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\">Samantha Lee-Jacobs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/6f7c0c98cda64cc9aa11d186ab2cd362.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/b4e5568b6c76406faacc13c0b7867ad0.jpg\" title=\"Recently diagnosed with blood cancer, Myeloma, Judy-Ann Stevens shared her journey ahead of the walk.\"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">Recently diagnosed with blood cancer, Myeloma, Judy-Ann Stevens shared her journey ahead of the walk.<\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\">Samantha Lee-Jacobs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/8cc8014911db48e9bb0f4e8d54af1c53.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/0750c249315840b7adf5dc005e62041d.jpg\" title=\"Melvin Adonis chose an interesting look. \"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">Melvin Adonis chose an interesting look. <\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\">Samantha Lee-Jacobs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/69da882cf24146ee8efbdd96b1acbafa.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cfabbe2b3ad74c63855e338e6aa5a7fb.jpg\" title=\"Ubuntu Hiking volunteer Bradley Williams marshalled along the route.\"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">Ubuntu Hiking volunteer Bradley Williams marshalled along the route.<\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\">Samantha Lee-Jacobs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/6cd42981e84b4eb78cee6fc7eb507dff.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/f6817a6ca456419ebcf6df608e991dd1.jpg\" title=\"The Ubuntu Hiking volunteers.\"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">The Ubuntu Hiking volunteers.<\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\">Samantha Lee-Jacobs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"walk\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/9083\/62ce84fccc5a423e99eba98a84a9f595.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/eikestadnuus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/5bf92fee37d9486eb8ebf366b57a73e2.jpg\" title=\"In support of cancer patients and survivors, Denise Adams, Leatitia Fortuin and Shann Lewis cut their hair.
