Everyone deserves basic health.

HEAL is a program that reaches into the forest and touches the lives of the Hindu Malayali tribal people that live there, supporting communities with clean drinking water sources and nutrition centres, and helping them access health facilities that save lives, without destroying their unique way of life.

HEAL works in the most remote, densely forested areas of the Jawadhi Hills tribal region in Tamil Nadu, where no medical services can reach. Anaemia, vitamin deficiency and malnutrition are the most common illnesses, often leading to severe issues such as blindness, cardiac problems and sometimes even death.

 

These communities live out of reach of government services and so, for many, access to basic nutrition and clean water is a distant dream. What they need are basic facilities to support health. That is why HEAL exists.



Our target areas stretch across the Jawadhi Hills providing health support to over 30 tribal hamlets.
