Turin, 15 October 2024
Frecciarosa 2024 arrives in Turin. On Wednesday 16 October, two Frecciarossa trains will be involved in the initiative: the FR 9516 train leaving Roma Termini at 8.10 a.m. bound for Torino Porta Nuova (13.10) and the FR 9323 train leaving the Piedmontese capital at 2.40 p.m. and reaching Roma Termini at 7.35 p.m.
On board the trains, in carriage three, volunteers from the IncontraDonna Foundation and doctors made available by the Italian Association of Medical Oncology will provide free counselling and distribute information material, including the ‘Health Vademecum’, drawn up in collaboration with the Ministry of Health. This ABC of prevention contains healthy lifestyle advice useful to the entire population, both travelling and not, and its digital version can be downloaded in Italian and English.
In addition, this year, remote consultations to receive medical clarifications, suggestions and indications may also be booked on the Frecciarosa.it platform, with necessary follow up in a SSN (National Healthcare System) facility.
Frecciarosa 2024 is the breast cancer prevention campaign promoted by the IncontraDonna Foundation and FS Group under the patronage of the Ministry of Health: for the entire month of October, it will provide consultations on board High-speed, Intercity and Regional trains.
The FS Group, sensitive to initiatives in the health field, renewed its support to the Frecciarosa project, by offering citizens and travellers a service to protect their health, in the awareness that a real fight against oncological diseases and breast cancer in particular can only pass through correct information and systematic prevention.
