Doek campaign fights cancer

Southern Suburbs Tatler

|

August 14, 2025

Artscape CEO and disability rights activist Marlene le Roux has been announced as the new ambassador for #DoekWithADifference, a national campaign raising awareness about cervical cancer through cultural pride and health advocacy.

- ERIN CARELSE

The campaign uses the iconic South African doek - a headwrap worn by women across cultures - as a rallying symbol in the fight to end cervical cancer.

This disease claims the lives of at least 16 women in South Africa every day, roughly one every 67 minutes, according to Rondebosch resident, Salomé Meyer, director of the Cancer Alliance.

The campaign, launched by Pink Trees for Pauline (PTFP) in collaboration with the Cancer Alliance, introduced Ms le Roux as its new ambassador on Saturday, August 9, during the Artscape Women’s Day Festival.
