HelpAge gives medical help to 3,400 older people in Pakistan

HelpAge staff have provided consultations, medication and counselling to older patients, at clinics run by medical charity Merlin, a long-term HelpAge partner.

We have also given out 1,600 personal kits to older people, which include clothes, bedding and food.

We are now raising funds and are already planning for a longer term response to help older people rebuild their lives.
