Hello Everyone
We hope you are all well and looking forward to Christmas.
We are delighted to inform you that things are going well since our last report on the two-day annual medical outreach last June.
A few of the five hundred people who attended the medical outreach have been supported with specialist investigations and treatments at tertiary centres.
The seven people who received cataract operations are doing very well and looking after their families better.
Our Medication Maintenance Programme is expanding and reaching more people. The monthly sessions provide some of the poorest individuals in the communities with free regular blood pressure and diabetes checks and medication supplies. We facilitate specialist investigations and treatment in local hospitals when required.
With the economic crisis in Nigeria increasingly very bleak, more people are applying for our small interest free loans scheme.
Our immense thanks to you for your continued support for our programme to improve the health and wellbeing of poor communities in rural Southeast Nigeria.
