Thyroshakti – Thyroid Awareness Camp | Taking Preventive Health Into the Community
Organized by the Public Health Office and Public Health Club of SVKM’s Dr. Bhanuben Nanavati College of Pharmacy (Autonomous)
?? Date: 21st July 2025
?? Locations: Kandivali, Andheri, Borivali
In collaboration with Abbott India Limited, we conducted a Free Thyroid Awareness & Screening Camp across three locations—reaching individuals who are often overlooked and rarely get their thyroid health checked.
Thyroid disorders often go unnoticed until symptoms progress, affecting energy, metabolism, and overall well-being. This camp aimed to enable early detection and share simple, practical steps to maintain thyroid health.
?? What We Offered & Key Focus Areas
? Free thyroid screening by Abbott’s expert team
? Awareness of the importance of regular testing and early detection
? Guidance on recognizing symptoms of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism
? Nutritional tips on prophylactic use of iodine and calcium-rich foods
? Introduction to basic yoga practices that support thyroid wellness
?? Sustainable Development Goals fulfilled by the camp, which is an initiative of the United Nations
?? Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being
?? Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals
?? With 102 beneficiaries across all three locations, this initiative became a strong step toward building a healthier and better-informed community.
?? A heartfelt thank you to Abbott India Limited and to the doctors and healthcare professionals whose dedication made this initiative possible.
?? We also extend our sincere gratitude to SVKM’s Dr. Bhanuben Nanavati College of Pharmacy and our Principal, Dr. Munira Momin Ma’am, for their constant encouragement and support that made this community outreach a reality. ?
