The Lions Club of Ludhiana has launched a free blood‑sugar testing camp to screen residents for diabetes and raise awareness about the condition.
Ludhiana, Punjab – The Lions Club of Ludhiana has inaugurated a free sugar‑screening camp aimed at detecting elevated blood‑glucose levels among the local population. The initiative seeks to provide early identification of diabetes and to educate participants about lifestyle measures that can mitigate the disease.
The camp, set up in a public venue, offers on‑the‑spot blood‑sugar testing without any charge. Trained volunteers from the club conduct the tests and hand out basic counseling on diet, exercise, and the importance of regular medical check‑ups.
Organisers emphasized that diabetes remains a growing health concern in Punjab, and community‑based screening drives are essential for timely intervention. Residents are encouraged to visit the camp during its operating hours to know their sugar levels and receive guidance.
The Lions Club hopes that the outreach will prompt further health‑focused activities in the region, fostering a proactive approach to chronic disease management.
