The Happy Hour - March 7 2026

Remember to join us on Saturdays at 3pm on Guardian Radio 96.9FM and pour yourself a cup of happiness on the airwaves with The Happy Hour with DeAndra V. Cartwright.

Today, Saturday 7 March 2026, we will be hosting Healthy Bahamas Coalition. Joining us will be Mrs. Melissa Major, who is Cancer Subcommittee Lead.

According to the Department of Public Health, “The Healthy Bahamas Coalition (HBC) functions as The Bahamas’ National Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) Commission. It mobilizes the public and private sectors, civil society, academia, and regional partners to develop and implement strategies for the prevention and management of chronic diseases. The Coalition's overarching vision is to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with NCDs among residents of The Bahamas. HBC also advocates for and supports the development of health policy. Through 10 subcommittees addressing key areas such as tobacco control, diabetes and hypertension, older persons’ health and nutrition, the Coalition is committed to improving population health and quality of life. Notable initiatives include the School Water Access Project (SWAP), Healthy Schools Initiative, Break the Silence Campaign, and collaborative projects such as Hope for the Future and the Act on Facts Campaign. In the area of policy, HBC has contributed to the drafting of the Health Promotion and Wellness Bill (2025) and the Rooting Out Violence White Paper.”
