Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
 Protecting the health and wellness of our families is important to us and in this spirit, The World Federation of KSIMC is urging community members worldwide to help fund a new digital x-ray machine for the Ebrahim Haji Charitable Health Centre in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The X-Ray Department at the Health Centre is open 6 days a week, 12 hours a day. Physicians use x-rays to help diagnose disease and injury so that they can then chart out the best course of treatment for their patients.
At present, the Health Centre is faced with the challenge of balancing a limited budget and the pressing need for a fully functioning and reliable x-ray machine. With the number of x-rays performed at the clinic increasing day by day, the current machine has become old and often does not work, compromising the health and well being of so many patients.

 On 7 th March 2010, the Health Improvement Board Screening Team of The Council of European Jamaats visited Wessex Jamaat to carry out its popular health screening on the Jamaat members. As always, the day was well attended, with almost 100 people coming to be screened. The screening days attracted members of all ages, from young to old. They catered for all ages, with paediatricians at hand for the children so the whole family could leave with valuable health advice.
Of the stations that they offered, the cardiovascular risk station is always a favourite to begin with. Although with advice centred on weight loss, doing more exercise and giving up smoking, it quickly becomes the least favourite.

The main aim of the board is to work towards improving the health and well being of our community. For more information visit: www.coej.org/hib.

This is a life-changing opportunity for individuals to gain experience by helping those who need it most. This invaluable experience will provide you with skills and experience that may be required not only for future careers, but also in life! East Africa has been specifically chosen as it will allow us to work with and assist our own communities. Not only will this be a life-changing opportunity for yourself but also for those that you may meet during your trip.

 Swine flu, otherwise known as the H1N1 influenza infection has now spread globally affecting a large number of people. The illness is mild like the common cold in most people and can last between 5 to 7 days before recovery takes place. It is feared that there could be an outbreak of the swine flu during the Hajj this year and arrangements are being made to provide assessment and treatment centres to the hujjaj who have flu-like illness in case of the swine flu. However, prevention is always better than a cure.

This leaflet aims to provide information about swine flu including the symptoms, treatment and preventative measures which can be taken by all Hujjaj. |
