Your help is needed
Because Mirko, aged 3, couldn't find a doctor who could treat his high fever since his family lacked a proof of address.
Because Priscilla, a torture survivor from Uganda could not register with a GP to get the life-saving HIV treatment she needs, since her asylum application is being processed.
Because health is a human right, and we can protect it together.
By joining you will become a powerful force, ensuring that the community's most vulnerable get the health care they need.
