    [01] Clerides marches in aid of cancer patients

    Nicosia, Apr 12 (CNA) -- President Glafcos Clerides today assured that the government will always be coming in aid of Cyprus Anti-Cancer Society's efforts to ease the pain of cancer patients.

    Addressing this morning the start of the 23rd annual Christodoula march in aid of cancer patients, the President noted that cancer is the second cause of deaths occurring in Cyprus.

    He said the event aims to raise money for the Arodaphnousa Home for Cancer Patients, in Nicosia, and other projects of the Anti-Cancer Society, such as home care of patients.

    President Clerides hailed the Society's efforts and stressed the need for new projects to cover prevention and early detection of cancer.

    The President headed the march which followed a route round Nicosia before ending back at Arodaphnousa.

    The march was originated by cancer specialist Demetris Souliotis in memory of Christodoula, one of his patients from Famagusta, who died under an orange tree in August 1974, just after the Turkish invasion that forced her leave her eastern coastal town, occupied until today by Turkish-troops.

    Marches took place today in all free districts of the island except Limassol, where it will take place on April 26.
