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

I am running the 2015 Brighton Marathon on the 12th April for Bhopal Medical Appeal. The goal is the minimum amount I hope to raise for this great charity and would love to exceed it. Thank you all in advance for your generous sponsorship and supporting me.

Bhopal Medical Appeal

I came across the charity earlier this year and was embarrassed about how little I knew about it and from speaking to others how little people in general knew about what had happened.

The Bhopal disaster in India was a result of the Union Carbide plant which leaked 27 tonnes of gas into the city, affecting half a million people. The Bhopal Medical Appeal provides free medical care to the 120,000 chronically ill survivors that were left and those faces health problems due to a contaminated water supply.
