This was held on the 19th of September at Namulonge Play Grounds. The main participant was People’s Medical Hospital Gayaza which partnered with the different medical fraternities in order to provide Free medical care to the vulnerable Community Memebers.
The main purpose of a free medical camp is to provide essential healthcare services to undeserved Communites , which includes offering free check-ups, consultations, and medicines for those who cannot afford them. These camps also focus on health education, raising awareness about preventive care, and screening for diseases, ultimately improving public health and well-being in areas with limited access to consistent medical facilities.
