The Free Trade Union of Medical Workers of Ukraine in Novovolynsk (western Ukraine) is appealing for humanitarian aid for the local hospital to help it cope with the extensive consequences of the war. Health workers in Ukraine are also having to campaign to defend their health system against cuts and neoliberal reforms.
The union is seeking to procure a system of continuous passive joint movement, strength training equipment for rehabilitation, cardiovascular monitors, and computers.
The Ukraine Solidarity Campaign is raising money to support the appeal which closes Friday 25 August.

The Ukraine Solidarity Campaign has provided material aid to Ukrainian unions in the past, such as protective equipment for firefighters and specialist stretchers for spinal injuries. This was following a request from the Independent Trade Union of Mineworkers of Ukraine (NPGU) of the 10th Mining Rescue Squad in the Donetsk region.
Medical aid is a simple and direct act of solidarity with the people of Ukraine. Make your donation now!
