Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

Daffodil Day is one of the world’s most iconic and widely supported annual campaigns, raising both funds and awareness for cancer. In Slovakia, it is organised by the League Against Cancer and represents the country’s largest public fundraising initiative, promoting solidarity with cancer patients. This Thursday, April 16, volunteers wearing the signature yellow daffodils and carrying donation boxes will once again take to the streets, marking the campaign’s 30th anniversary. On this occasion, Eva Kováčová — who has been with the League Against Cancer since 2002 and now serves as its Executive Director — shares insights into the impact and significance of this long-standing initiative. The latest episode of Slovak Sound Check focuses on adjectives and their opposites, exploring common word pairs.
