HealthProm

HealthProm is pleased to announce two new funding partnerships that will allow us to deepen our support for refugee and migrant communities in London and expand our live saving support to mothers and children in Afghanistan.
Islington Giving: Cripple Gate Foundation: .
We’re delighted to receive a £24,915 grant from Islington Giving to support our Gateway to Education and Social Integration for Young People project.
This project will empower young people to access education, build confidence, and integrate into their communities through tailored support and opportunities.
This generous funding will have a lasting impact—helping youth develop skills, resilience, and brighter futures.
Our sincere thanks to Islington Giving for investing in young people and strengthening our community.
Linda Norgrove Foundation:
We are pleased to announce that the Linda Norgrove Foundation has committed to provide £30,000 per year for the next three years to support HealthProm’s mother and child health improvement programme in Afghanistan.
This support will expand life-saving maternal and child health services in underserved communities, providing antenatal care, emergency transport, and community-led support groups. This partnership will help reduce preventable deaths and create healthier futures for mothers, children, and families.
It will enable us to sustain progress in Kaldar and extend support to Chahi, where needs are critical. Over three years, we aim to significantly reduce preventable maternal and child deaths.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the continue support by the Linda Norgrove Foundation.

A celebration of hope, tradition, and community. 🌿✨

On April 4, our HealthProm family came together to celebrate Nowruz, the Persian New Year, with the Afghan refugee community we support. It was a day filled with the scents of spring and the warmth of togetherness.
It was a joyful occasion and a wonderful opportunity for everyone to come together, enjoy each other’s company and welcome spring with hope and good wishes for the year ahead. At the heart of the celebration was the Haft-Seen table, a special Nowruz tradition made up of seven symbolic items beginning with the Persian letter ‘S’, each representing values such as new life, love, health, beauty, patience and prosperity.

The women also made traditional Afghan desserts to share, and the day was filled with games, music and dancing. It was especially lovely to see how happy everyone was, particularly the children. The whole event had such a warm and cheerful atmosphere, and it gave families a great chance to relax, celebrate and spend time together as a community.
