Adventure Ashram is delighted to be one of them. The children and families who enjoy the benefits of Adventure Ashram’s health and education work will be making them welcome along the route. Adventure Ashram would like to thank each and every person who has been involved in Enduro India for making such a difference through this incredible adventure

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.
