Scouts marking global hand washing day!👐

People of countryside are still preserving our culture in the field of their of eating. They actually do not wash their hands before and after the meals thinking that thier hands are clean. They directly take food after playing, doing toilet and many more activities. They dont believe in science where the invisible organism affect our health as they believe in ancient belief. Thus making our society aware on keeping their health healthy is crucial.
My project was implemented on global hand washing day on 15 October. There were about 400 people participated in learning to wash their hand. I on behalf of scouts I led my scouts to support the health club to demonstrate on washing hands and sharing the benefits of it.
Around 455 members were benefited as they knew how to wash their hand and how to keep their health healthy . Little children were learning the steps of washing hand curiously. Elders were self conscious by that programme.
I know how to protect my uneducated people to maintain their health healthy by performing simple action that is washing hands before and after the meals, after doing toilet and playing. I'll make that programme better by playing role on washing hand and talk its consequences and challenges.
