Pujya Gurudevshri Rakeshbhai, Shrimad Rajchandra Mission Dharampur based in Gujarat is helping the community by setting up a new Covid Health Centre in just 10 days, as cases increase in India. The Health Centre is equipped with 50 beds, ICU and BiPAP machinery, and high-quality imaging centre with CT scan machinery, ventilators, high-flow oxygen support and an experienced team of doctors.

A ‘Covid-19 Suspect Ward’ has also been set up. The Phase 2 of the project involves adding a separate 150-bed facility and is already underway.

Within 48 hours, passionate volunteers raised over £150,000 in donations from UK’s Indian Diaspora. With the increasing demand, the team has subsequently increased the fundraising target to at least £500,000 to further expand the project.
