As motorcyclists on Enduro India rally arrive in Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu, Adventure Ashram welcomes Paul Mason as a Partner of our project providing health care to 150 children living in the area. With Paul’s support the children’s crèches will provide a nutritious meal each day. Each child will enjoy 2 eggs and 1 serving of chicken or fish each week and 1 teaspoon of ghee (saturated fat) mixed into their porridge every day. It is our intention that malnourishment will become a thing of the past and Dr Kolhatkar’s will be able to concentrate on different health issues. Thank you for coming on board Paul.

children 3-5 years old attending crèches in Kodikanal, Tamil Nadu, benefit from regular health checks thanks to Adventure Ashram supporters. Money raised from Enduro India and Karma Enduro rallies funds ASHRA, Action for Social Health in Rural Areas. Each child’s health is mapped on a chart and signs of malnourishment or ill health are identified immediately and the problems addressed. Early life is critical for growth and education. Being hungry or ill slows down a child’s development dramatically, leading to all sorts of problems in later life. Thank you for giving these children a good start in life.

This year, as part of Adventure Ashram’s relocation project, 17 families committed to leaving their homes in the forest. The project run by Centre of Wildlife Studies (CWS), has enabled the families to settle in new homes on land they own located on the outskirts of the forest. This move has made access to education and healthcare possible. Relocation of this kind can be a sensitive and slow process and it is Adventure Ashram’s grant of £250,000 which has helped ensure success for Dr. Ullas Karanth and his CWS team.
