The ‘Bed Replacement for the Chanthaburi Rest Home – Camillian Social Centre’ project run by the Camillian delegation in Thailand has just ended. The home houses 120 elderly people, some of whom pay a modest fee, while others receive medical care completely free of charge.

On 1 August, we decided to inaugurate this project following the request of Fr. Renato Attrezzi, Director of the centre, who told us of the absolute urgency of proceeding with the replacement of the beds of the 120 in-patients, which had not only become too old and uncomfortable, but were also no longer functional for the medical staff, having also rusted due to the humid climate of the area.

We welcomed the request of Fr. Attrezzi and we found in the Cav. Silvano Pedrollo a valuable supporter of the initiative: thanks to his generosity we were able to purchase most of the requested beds, which have just been installed in the centre.

We at Salute e Sviluppo are very happy to have contributed to the success of this operation and look forward to continuing to collaborate with this reality in support of the centre’s activities for the most fragile.
