Charity’s David Murray explains how raising £10k will help control the spread of coronavirus

Covid-19 presents an enormous challenge for Article 25, a humanitarian architecture charity, halting our construction projects and putting paid to our hopes of delivering much-needed fundraising events to help keep the charity going. As a result of postponed or cancelled events, we estimate that over £200,000 of funds will not make it into our charity coffers.

One of our long-standing projects is work on the masterplan, refurbishment, and expansion of Yangon General Hospital - Myanmar’s largest public hospital, with 2,400 beds and over 400,000 patients passing through each year. The 20-year work programme has pivoted towards more focused short-term works in response to the pandemic.
