Manama, Bahrain: City Centre Bahrain, the largest shopping, leisure and entertainment destination in Bahrain, furthered its commitment to supporting community health and welfare by screening more than 620 women for cardiovascular diseases at the lifestyle destination, as part of Majid Al Futtaim’s regional health awareness campaign: ‘Feel the Beat.’

City Centre Bahrain partnered with King Hamad University Hospital (KHUH) to provide medical professionals and administer a series of preventative tests including measurement of blood pressure, blood sugar, and body mass index (BMI). Additionally, visitors learned about CPR from the live educational demonstrations at the City Centre Bahrain during these two days.

With the objective to empower women to take control of their heart health through early detection and preventative measures, ‘Feel the Beat’ is part of Majid Al Futtaim’s wider programme of health and sustainability initiatives taking place throughout the year ensuring health, happiness and creating great moments for everyone, everyday.

Every weekend until June 12th, medical specialists will visit all Majid Al Futtaim shopping malls across the UAE, Bahrain, Egypt, Lebanon and Oman, administering a series of preventative tests for all females, to raise awareness for the risks of heart disease.

Participating malls throughout the campaign in the UAE are: Mall of the Emirates; City Centre Mirdif; City Centre Deira; City Centre Ajman; City Centre Fujairah; My City Centre, Nasseriya, Matajer Mergab and City Centre Sharjah. Shoppers can also participate in screening locations at City Centre Bahrain; City Centre Muscat and City Centre Qurum in Oman, City Centre Alexandria and City Centre Maadi in Egypt, and City Centre Beirut in Lebanon.
