We have sponsored health care for the leprosy village near Purulia. This is provided by the Leprosy Mission from their hospital in Purulia. The above picture shows a number of the villagers after they have had cataract surgery.
This picture shows the issuing of disability certificates to the villagers
The villagers are far happier to have treatment in the village rather that trying to get to the hospital. Dr Darlong, who we met when we visited in 2012 is seen testing blood pressure.

Inspection and treatment of a foot ulcer. As in the previous nutrition post is is heart-warming to see the smiling faces and gives us all the reward we could hope for.
