It was instant satisfaction for the members of the TANKER Awareness and Prevention (TAPP) team of TANKER Foundation, who conducted an awareness programme at Chinna Porur, Chennai.
The awareness programme was conducted by TAPP team member, Mrs. Deepa, and she was assisted competently by Ms. Jeevarani V, an intern from D.G. Vaishnav College, Arumbakkam, Chennai.
The awareness programme for members of the general public was held at Government Hospital (UCHC), Wednesday, October 11, 2023.
While Ms. Jeevarani gave an introduction, Mrs. Deepa gave an awareness talk about kidney disease.
At the end of it, one among the 110 participants gave a fantastic feedback. The man said many people just generally say control BP and sugar; but only after this awareness programme he came to know about the significance of controlling BP and sugar. The TAPP team felt that all its hard work was paying off.
Also, 250 leaflets about kidney health were distributed to the general public.
TANKER Foundation’s Chinna Porur dialysis unit in-charge, Mr Abdul Sukur, gave an introduction about the Foundation.
