Massive landslides have wreaked havoc in Wayanad district of Kerala leaving hundreds dead, thousands displaced and their property destroyed. HelpAge India, through its Disaster Response programme and its Mobile Healthcare programme, has been helping provide medical relief, support and counselling to elder victims as well as their families.

Our Mobile Healthcare Unit, an all-women team, is working tirelessly, setting up daily camps to provide medical aid as well as grief counselling for elders living in various relief camps. The team is ensuring that the vitals of elders living with Non-communicable Diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes, asthma, cardiovascular issues, etc. are being monitored and that they have all the medication that they need.

You can play a role in helping elders and their community recover from their unprecedented disaster and contribute to the rebuilding of their lives and livelihoods.
