Bamia benefits from massive outreach
Members of the recently-formed Healthy Living Club, along with a diverse group of individuals from Linden, visited Bamia on the Soesdyke/Linden highway, to offer several services to residents.
The outreach was held on Saturday, and the group consisted of doctors, teachers, nurses, housewives and student nurses attached to the Charles Roza School of Nursing.
Residents received school supplies, hampers and clothing. They were also given talks on health, and the younger ones were treated to storytelling.
