Global Handwashing Day is celebrated annually worldwide on 15th of October with the aim of raising awareness on the need to always wash your hands with soap.
After the unfortunate Co-VID19 pandemic, more and more Ghanaians picked up the habit of hand hygiene particularly the use of Handwash and Sanitisers more frequently.
However, with the recent decline in COVID19 cases and the introduction of Vaccines, handwashing has been less of a personal priority than other COVID-19 prevention measures as adherence is not always as visibly obvious (e.g., in comparison to mask use). Hence the need to educate more people on the importance of practicing handwashing in their daily activities.
Every year, PZ Cussons marks Global handwashing Day with various CSR activities led by the Carex brand. The theme for Global Handwashing Day 2021 is “Our future is at hand, lets move forward together” and this theme embraces the need to still practice hand hygiene post-pandemic.
