As mentioned in our earlier post Ali, a podiatrist at Theale Wellbeing Centre, will be volunteering at The Village of Hope in India at the end of December/beginning of January. Using her Podiatry training Ali will be helping leprosy sufferers who often have ulcerated feet. Alongside her will be her friend Marian who will dress the wounds once Ali has treated them.

Donations for medical equipment for the Village of Hope

Her work during her stay is detailed in this blog and we continue to seek donations for much needed medical equipment. Follow this link if you would like to support us. This video (created by a student) ealier this year will give you some idea of the work being done at the Village of Hope. Our intention is that this will be the first of many visits to this wonderful facility – if you think you have the right skills to make a difference contact us about how you could volunteer.
