The Bhopal Medical Appeal funds two clinics giving free treatment to survivors of the 1984 Bhopal Disaster (the World’s worst industrial disaster). It also treats thousands of people who are being slowly poisoned by drinking water contaminated with chemicals never cleared-up from the disaster site.

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

We are embarking on a fundraising project for The Children of Bhopal appeal. Twenty two years ago The Unioin Carbide factory in Bhopal, in India, killed thousands in a night when the plant began leaking deadly gasses. Union Carbide abandoned the site without bothering to clean it, leaving behind a chemical nightmare. As a result today the children of Bhopal continue to be born with several birth defects.

Our challenge is to cycle 420km in 5 days through Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, finishing at the Sambhavna Clinic, which is the only place in Bhopal offering free treatments and medicinesd to the children affected by the disaster. Here, we will be able to see first hand the vital support that we hope you will contribute towards.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Bhopal Medical Appeal will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
