The Reason we are here - Polio Eradication

4th Feb
Today we engaged with the reason we are all here; the elimination of Polio. In Tumkur we supported the local Rotary Clubs in their awareness raising campaign in the poorer area of the city.

We hope the pictures & videos, which you can see via YouTube, tell their own story:


You can find the first video on YouTube by clicking here

A video showing some of the poorer areas we walked through to raise awareness is here

We were also given an opportunity to see the all important "drops"being delivered in a local Clinic.
Some of our party, particularly those with nursing backgrounds, were encouraged to take a direct part this activity.
