Breast cancer awareness campaign Pink Caravan Ride is calling on horse riders from across the UAE to saddle up and take part in their seven-day ride across the seven emirates.
The ride set to take place between February 23 and March 1 next year with as many as 150 equestrians expected to take part.
The yearly event is organised by Friend of Cancer Patients, a non-profit society, and it offers free medical advice, as well as ultrasounds and mammogram screenings.
Breast cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed malignancies in the UAE. The annual campaign aims to raise awareness of the importance of self-examination and regular screenings – early detection increases survival rates.
Register for the ride at www.pinkcaravan.ae/register before February 10.

Tips for entertaining with ease
· Set the table the night before. It’s a small job but it will make you feel more organised once done.
· As the host, your mood sets the tone. If people arrive to find you red-faced and harried, they’re not going to relax until you do. Take a deep breath and try to exude calm energy.
· Guests tend to turn up thirsty. Fill a big jug with iced water and lemon or lime slices and encourage people to help themselves.
· Have some background music on to help create a bit of ambience and fill any initial lulls in conversations.
· The meal certainly doesn’t need to be ready the moment your guests step through the door, but if there’s a nibble or two that can be passed around it will ward off hunger pangs and buy you a bit more time in the kitchen.
· You absolutely don’t have to make every element of the brunch from scratch. Take inspiration from our ideas for ready-made extras and by all means pick up a store-bought dessert.
