Organisation playing its part in fight against NCDs

The Rotary Club of Barbados, through its 'Create Hope - NCD Screening and Literacy Project' is working to bring about a change in the health and well-being of Barbadians. The project, which got underway a year ago, came about after assessment of communities. President, Ermine Darroux-Francis says they are moved by the statistics regarding non communicable diseases and had to assist. She says NCDs are a real threat and prevention is key. Ms. Darroux-Francis was a guest on CBC TV8's Mornin' Barbados. The Bayview Group is among the partners with the 'Create Hope - NCD Screening and Literacy Project'. With the group now readying to open its urgent care facility, Marketing Manager Elena Pinder says the project fell in line with their objectives.
