We firmly believe that every person on dialysis can - and should lead a normal life. By a normal life, we mean to be able to work, exercise, travel and have fun. To prove to the world that this really is true, we are organising the Dialysis Olympiad - an Olympics style event exclusively for those on dialysis.
The first edition of the event was held in February 2015 in Hyderabad. The second edition is being organised in Delhi. People on dialysis from all over the country are expected to participate in this unique event in sports such as Running, Cycling, Badminton, Table Tennis and more!
This event will prove to all that people on dialysis can lead normal lives. At this event, patients will interact with others like them while competing for the Gold, Silver and Bronze medals in each event. There will also be a fun-filled entertainment event following the sporting activities called ‘Aashayein - Let’s Celebrate Life’ which will have various musical programs designed to entertain all the participants.
Patients from all over the country were invited for a free, one day event in Hyderabad where they could participate in things like Running,Cycling, Basketball, Table Tennis, Sudoku. Carroms etc. Almost 500 patients from all over the country participated in this event. Gold. Silver and Bronze medals were given away to the winners in each event. The event ended with an Antakshari kind of music competition.
