Thailand’s Police Association donated 4 million baht from its second annual charity walk-run event, Police Run 2024, to the Police General Hospital. This donation, presented yesterday, January 14 at the hospital, will fund medical equipment to support patients and visitors.

 

The event, organised by the Police Association and the Police General Hospital Foundation under Royal Patronage, took place last year on November 10.

 

The funds will be allocated to various initiatives: 1.2 million baht will support the endoscopy and laparoscopic surgery centre, 1.8 million baht will aid the dentistry group, and 1 million baht will be used for medical education scholarships at the hospital.

 

 

Police Lieutenant General Taweesilp Wetchavisit, Chief Medical Officer (Level 8), alongside Police Colonel Sirikul Srisanga, spokesperson for the Police General Hospital, represented the foundation in receiving the donation.

 

Police Lieutenant General Taweesilp expressed gratitude to Police General Winai Thongsong, President of the Police Association, and the association’s board for their generous contribution.

 

He emphasised that the donation would enhance the hospital’s capabilities, enabling it to provide comprehensive and modern medical services. This includes acquiring advanced medical equipment to improve the quality of care for patients, reported KhaoSod.
