Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
To boost the funding pot we will both be climbing Mount Snowdon on the 26th of June 21' and would welcome any sponsorship for this effort.
The climb will be a first for both the of us as neither of us have done anything like this before however we are looking forward to the challenge!
I started a petition last week to urge the UK government to send oxygen, equipment and expertise to India urgently to help save as many lives as possible as India is struggling to keep up with the daily demand due to a massive spike in deaths from the Corona virus.
As someone of Indian origin and connections in India I am drawn naturally to try and do my bit.
There are many appeals currently through charities, NGO'S, private individuals and of course the UK government has started to send aid which is fantastic and has started to save lives, but more needs to be done, please also continue to support my petition on change.org to ask the government to send oxygen and aid to India the following is the link to that petition:
https://www.change.org/oxygenforindia
Experts who do modelling are forecasting deaths based on current rates to reach a minimum of 1million by August this year in India however they state that because the figures report have been hugely under reported the actual death rates are likely to be in the region of 4 to 5 million and taking into consideration the no's of deaths globally currently stand at around 3 million plus then then we can see the scale of problem India faces in the coming weeks.
The problem is huge therefore I would urge/request fellow UK citizens to donate what they can afford and be safe in the knowledge that the money will be used used efficiently by a well known and organised charity. and will help save lives.
Thank you
