Provisions For Basic Health Care Services Especially In Rural India Are Few And Far Between. It?S An Understood Reality That The Elderly Fall Way Behind In Receiving These Services.
Aim/Objective/Mission : Subho Swapno Trust is a leading charity in India working with and for disadvantaged elderly for more than 3 decades. It was set up in 2007 and is registered under the Trust’s Registration Act of 1962. Traditionally the focus was to improve the quality of life of destitute elders primarily in the rural areas through its welfare projects by providing free rations, free medicines and consultations and conduct free cataract surgeries. It slowly spread its wings and started focusing on long term sustainability options for these elders through various livelihood projects and helping them form Elder Self-Help Groups, which today span India. For the last few years, there has been an increased concentration on advocating for elder rights, engaging with the government on framing of new legislation and pushing for the implementation of the National Policy of Older Persons. HelpAge is now also increasingly focusing on the concerns of urban elderly having realised that even relatively economically advantaged elders face emotional and physical problems.
