Mr Dilip Patro, Founder Secretary of The Ability People (TAP), an NGO based out of Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, visited Neuroaid Shakti on 12 August, 2023. TAP was started in 2007, by a group of persons with spinal cord injuries for the welfare of people with similar injuries and is currently functioning in collaboration with The Greater Visakha Municipal Corporation (GVMC). Mr Patro, himself a person with quadriplegia, is an exemplary role model to persons with permanent disability. His journey from despair to hope and finally functional independence in all walks of his life is inspiring.
Mr Patro was impressed by the way Neuroaid Shakti had attempted to offer complete and integrated rehabilitation services under one roof. He was pleasantly surprised to see the wide range of equipment and sophisticated machines at the Centre to cater for a variety of neurological, orthopaedic, paediatric and psychological conditions despite space constraints.
The Ability People, through Mr Patro, conveyed their interest in collaborating with NRF in the future.
