Republic Bank, UK charity spearhead medical initiative
Article by April 10, 2021
Kidney transplant surgeries in Barbados are scheduled to resume in June as a local surgeon returns from training in the United Kingdom.
This training is being provided by UK-based charity Transplant Links Community (TLC) with funding from Republic Bank (Barbados) Limited (RBBB).
Barbados’ Kidney Transplant Programme was birthed through a partnership between the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and TLC, which sees local doctors and nurses receiving medical training in the care of kidney patients, including the intricacies of kidney transplant operations.
Through its corporate social responsibility programme, the Power to Make a Difference (PMAD), Republic Bank continues to fund the initiative.
