Transforming lives through health education and active living.

Community support

Building Stronger, Healthier Communities

Medicare Foundation was founded by Naana Hagan-Cherry, a former British Army nurse. We collaborate with local charities globally to promote health and well-being — with a special focus on sickle cell awareness, blood donation, and campaigns driven by sports and movement.

Through sports, community walks and educational programmes, we help individuals and families lead healthier, more connected lives.
