HACEY, in collaboration with Access Bank, organized a Free Community Health Outreach aimed at improving healthcare access for residents of Lakuwe in Ibeju Lekki.

This initiative, titled “Access Free Community Health Outreach,” highlights a shared commitment to promoting health equity and enhancing the well-being of underserved communities.

The outreach offers a comprehensive range of health services, including free medical check-ups, health consultations, wellness education, and screenings.

More importantly, the initiative not only addresses the pressing healthcare needs of the Ibeju Lekki community but also represents a proactive step toward fostering a healthier population.

According to the organizers, by providing these essential services at no cost, the initiative aims to remove barriers to healthcare access and improve overall community health outcomes.

Speaking at the event, Taiwo Adu, Team Lead, Sustainable Finance Team at Access Bank Plc, said: ‘’Today’s medical outreach is a direct reflection of this commitment.

‘’By supporting healthcare access for underserved communities, we are not only addressing immediate medical needs but also contributing to the broader Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 3—Good Health and Well-being.

‘’This initiative also aligns with our efforts in sustainable finance, where we support health infrastructure, invest in clean energy for hospitals, and partner with institutions to scale impactful interventions.

‘’Whether it’s through our Solar for Health initiative, green financing products, or our partnerships with health-focused NGOs, Access Bank remains committed to driving positive change at the intersection of finance, health, and sustainability.”

In the same vein, Bamidele Oyewumi, Program Team Lead at HACEY, said: “Access to quality healthcare is a fundamental right, and we are committed to ensuring that every individual in our communities can benefit from essential health services.

“This outreach is a testament to our dedication to fostering healthier communities and addressing health disparities.

“We believe that everyone deserves access to healthcare, regardless of their circumstances. Partnering with Access Bank for this outreach allows us to give back to the community and support the health and well-being of our neighbors,” he said.
