EMHREP Spends X'mas with Mental Health Patients on the Street

Whilst majority of Ghanaians spent the Christmas festivities with their families at
home, the Mensah Mental Health Rehabilitation Project (MEMHREP) did the contrary by
spending a day with the mental-health patients on the street. This happened last
Saturday, December 31, 2016 in the Kumasi Metropolis. About 20 members of the Group
in their colourful T-shirts and with the support of some nurses, not only interacted
with these mentally-challenged persons (Nyame Adehye3), but also fed, bathed and
clothed them.

It must be pointed out that, this is not the first time MEMHREP has been showing love
and care for these unfortunate human beings. For the past five years MEMHREP has been
feeding, bathing, and clothing the mentally-ill persons on the street in the Kumasi
Metropolis at its own expenses.

Led by Mr. Adu Gyamfi, MEMHREP has so far rescued a 4-month abondoned-baby of
mentally-deranged woman from death in September, 2014. It also emerged the best
institution in maize production in the Atwima Kwanwoma District during the 2014
National Farmers' Day Celebration.

Again, during the celebration of the 2016 Mental Health Day (10th October), MEMHREP
organised a get-together for 40 mental health patients at Willingways Rehabilitation
Centre at Kwamo near Ejisu. It was followed by a cash donation of GHC200, two mini
sacks of used clothing, 15kg of rice, bars of key soap, a number of washing powder,
packets of toilet rolls, ten bags of sachet water worth 1000s of Ghana cedis.

Currently, MEMHREP is building a permanent Rehabilitation Centre for the mental
patients at Akokoamon in Ashanti Region. The Centre will be used to provide the
necessary skills for employment for the recovered victims in order to reintegrate
them back into the community.

MEMHREP therefore needs all kinds of support from individuals, philanthropists and
institutions home and abroad to make the organization's dream of ridding our streets
off mental patients a reality.
