THE Brian Samuriwo Foundation is on Wednesday offering free medical health services and medication to scores of Bulawayo residents.

Today, the foundation has brought doctors and nurses to Njube Business Centre to offer free health services and medication to residents of Njube, Lobengula, Pelandaba, Iminyela, Mabuthweni, Mpopoma, Entumbane and Emakhandeni.

Residents of the eight western suburbs have responded to the call by the Brian Samuriwo Foundation for free medical services and medicines by coming in huge numbers.

The elderly suffering from ailments such as Hypertension (BP), diabetes and arthritis make up the majority of residents who are being held from the health expo.

The Brian Samuriwo Foundation, through its health expo initiative, is making a significant impact in the community, providing essential medical services to the elderly and young.

The initiative aims to bridge the healthcare gap for the elderly in Bulawayo who often struggle to access medical care due to financial constraints.

The foundation’s team of doctors and pharmacists sets up temporary medical centers in Bulawayo neighborhoods on a rotational basis, ensuring that everyone has access to quality healthcare.

“We are using part of the profits to support the elderly as a way of giving back to the community, which supports our business. Most of the people who patronise our business are the children and grandchildren of elderly residents that we are assisting,” said Cde Samuriwo.
