I've raised £20000 to donate to MDCF (Charity no 1099339) to raise funds towards a new MRI scanner in an Indian hospital.

Story
MDCF are fund raising to obtain a MRI diagnostic machine to support an outstanding charitable hospital project in rural India.
The Hospital treats the poorest children and adults in the surrounding area. To date 70,000 patients have been seen over a period of 6 years.
A large number of these patients need MRI scanning to assist in the accurate diagnosing of head injuries, cancers and spinal injuries.
Currently they are having to turn away seriously ill patients and send them to other hospitals for MRI scans. The journey to the nearest hospital performing MRI is expensive and medically hazardous. Most patients cannot afford the journey or the MRI scan and as a result become much more seriously ill.
