Radio Plus Celebrates 24 Years with a Health and Family Day

In celebration of its 24th anniversary on April 13, Radio Plus is focusing on prevention and well-being by organizing a Health Day at Tribeca Mall. The event will take place at the Piazza, near the food court, from 10 AM to 3 PM.

For this special edition, the radio station has chosen to dedicate a day to health and family. The goal is to raise public awareness about the importance of prevention while providing a friendly and accessible experience for everyone.

According to Venen Coolen, the station's director, this initiative reflects the social mission of Radio Plus. "This day is part of a social effort that is integral to our mission. We owe a lot to our listeners, and it is important for us to offer them an activity that is beneficial, while emphasizing health and prevention," he states.

Throughout the day, visitors will have free access to various services, including screenings, health assessments, and medical consultations. Nutritional advice, information on prevention, and recommendations for well-being and lifestyle will also be available.

"Today, health is a major concern. Chronic diseases are becoming more prevalent, but many people do not take the time or may not have the means to undergo health assessments or medical consultations," Venen Coolen points out.

Mini-conferences and health talks will also be part of the program, aimed at informing the public. Topics will include diabetes, cancer, and other chronic diseases that particularly affect Mauritians. "The aim of these mini-conferences is to educate the public, raise awareness about the risks associated with certain diseases, and demonstrate that prevention is essential to avoid falling ill. Doctors will be present to inform and advise visitors," added the station director.

In addition, various activities will liven up the day, including Zumba and yoga sessions. Children will have their own space with fun activities, including a bouncy castle and face painting. Teenagers can enjoy a dedicated gaming area.
