HHCS/ARPD Hosted Rescue 1122 for Fire Safety and Emergency Response Training in Peshawar ππ₯π§―
π€ Through our partnership with the Association for the Rehabilitation of the Physically Disabled (ARPD), our on-the-ground partner in Pakistan, HHCS donors help keep a safe and welcoming center open for patients, students and persons with disabilities. Here's a look at a recent day focused on keeping that center safe.
π Rescue 1122, Pakistan's emergency service, sent a team to the ARPD Center in Peshawar. They inspected the building for fire safety and trained everyone in what to do during an emergency.
π₯ 51 participants took part, including ARPD staff, members of the PWD Power Group βΏ and women from ARPD's Vocational Training Center π©π½. Malik Riaz Khan (In-charge, Awareness & Training Wing, Rescue 1122) and Noorul Amin (Medical Instructor, Rescue 1122) led the session. They showed everyone how to use a fire extinguisher π§― and ran a full evacuation drill ππ½.
π« Every day, the center is full of people who rely on it: patients in therapy, children in the inclusive school and persons with disabilities, some of whom have limited mobility. Now the team is ready to act quickly and calmly to get everyone to safety π€.
ππ½ A heartfelt thank you to Rescue 1122 for their time and expertise, and for helping keep the HHCS/ARPD community safe π§‘.
π Powered by HHCS donors: your generosity keeps the ARPD Center's doors open, its staff trained and the people it serves safe while they receive free, life-changing care. Thank you for standing with them ππ½πΈβ¨
