InterContinental Muscat partnered with the Oman Cancer Association (OCA) to host a breast cancer awareness session on 26 October 2026. The event took place at the hotel’s Sur meeting venue for colleagues, marking Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The hotel and OCA have worked together for about 10 years to promote health awareness and support the community. This year’s session focused on breast health and the importance of early detection. It targeted female employees and the hotel’s management team.
Dr Rajyashree N. Kutty, a specialist surgeon with 25 years of experience in breast diseases, led the session. She shared practical information and answered questions to help participants make informed decisions about their health.
Sebastian Thomas, General Manager of InterContinental Muscat, said: “We believe hospitality extends beyond caring for our guests to making a positive difference in the wider community.”
The programme included an awareness talk, an open discussion and a 30-minute interactive session. Basim Al Hasani, the hotel’s Director of Human Resources, highlighted the importance of a supportive workplace that prioritises employee wellbeing.
The initiative forms part of the hotel’s ongoing corporate social responsibility efforts. InterContinental Muscat plans to hold the awareness session every October to promote breast health and encourage early detection.
