Isle of Wight Challenge 2022 · 30 April 2022 to 1 May 2022 ·

A world where children and adults with special needs have access to the same opportunities as others to fulfil their life’s ambitions; a world where we can all live safely with dignity, respect, and quality care. We work towards this vision by developing and executing programs in the Republic of Moldova, the poorest country in Europe. We started with the Medical Aid Delivery program. The program facilitates the transfer of high-quality equipment no longer needed by British hospitals (NHS) to hospitals in dire need of improvement. At the same time, it helps the UK hospitals save the cost of storage or disposal of equipment they no longer need. We went on to establish and operate a UK-standard modern day care and early intervention and rehabilitation centre for children and teenagers with special needs. We aim to Make A Difference.

Story

MAD-Aid is a well-established charity, which has been operating for ten years.

I became aware of the charity's work via my brother and husband, who have been borrowing my horsebox to pick up aid which has been donated at collection points across the Isle of Wight and taking it to the hub in East Cowes, for sorting and then transportation to Moldova. 

Since the start of the Ukrainian crisis, MAD-Aid has been working to  get humanitarian aid to displaced Ukrainians in Moldova.

The charity has short-term, medium-term and long-term plans to help Ukrainians in need - but MAD-Aid needs your help!

You can read more about the charity on the website: https://www.mad-aid.org.uk or via Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MADAidUK

I have pledged to raise money and awareness for them by doing the 52km (32-mile) first half of the Isle of Wight Challenge at the end of April.
