Elder Care & Leprosy Support

Elder Care & Leprosy Support

For an older person who finds it difficult to move around or manage daily tasks, help with a meal or a personal visit matters. We support older people, including people affected by leprosy, with food, daily essentials and regular contact through our care work.

Help shaped around the person

Support may include meals and ration, clothing, bedding, toiletries, aids for daily living and help reaching health services. We ask what the person needs and what they are comfortable with, then arrange the assistance we can provide.

Our FY 2024–25 report describes food and ration support at KKM Colony Nalapani, Shanti Kust Ashram and Rotary Kust Ashram in Dehradun. The beneficiary stories share individual experiences of daily care and support.

Request help or plan a visit

To request support, tell us the person’s locality, the help needed and how to contact you. Please discuss any need for accommodation or round-the-clock care directly with the team.

If you would like to visit, complete the visit request form and wait for confirmation before travelling. We keep groups small and arrange visits around residents’ health, comfort and consent.
