The Rotary Club of Grenada has announced the highly anticipated return of its signature Free Community Health Fair, scheduled to run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 9, 2026, at the Gouyave Health Centre. This expanding community initiative builds on the overwhelming success of 2025’s event, upholding the organization’s long-standing mission to expand access to no-cost, high-quality preventive healthcare services for all Grenadians.
Rooted in Rotary’s core commitment to advancing public well-being, the 2026 health fair will offer attendees a comprehensive menu of free medical and diagnostic services that cover a wide range of critical health needs. The full lineup of services includes general medical consultations, blood pressure monitoring, blood sugar testing, cholesterol screening, ECG heart testing, sexually transmitted disease and sickle cell screening, cancer screening and pap smears, as well as full dental examinations.
Unlike many routine healthcare access points that create barriers for underserved community members, this event removes cost barriers entirely, and is open to people of every age and background. Event organizers are encouraging attendees to bring family members and friends along to take advantage of the free services, with an overarching goal of reaching more households than last year’s popular gathering.
A spokesperson for the Rotary Club of Grenada shared that the organization was inspired to expand the initiative following last year’s strong turnout and transformative positive impact on local residents. “Following the strong turnout and positive impact of last year’s health fair, we are excited to continue growing this initiative and expanding our reach within the community. Our goal is to make healthcare more accessible and to empower individuals to take charge of their health,” the representative said.
The fair’s core public health message is simple: proactive early detection saves lives, and prioritizing preventive care is the foundation of long-term health.
