Event Details

Sri Lanka's humanitarian crisis has had drastic impacts on its public health sector, with severely undersupplied resources and tightening pressure on hospitals. Hosted by Voiceworks contributor Janiru Liyanage, Express Media will be holding a fundraiser poetry and prose reading night to help renovate the Physiotherapy Department at Lady Ridgewell Hospital, the primary public hospital in Sri Lanka. The funds raised will go towards purchasing vital equipment including infrared bulbs, Theraband sets, Kinesio tapes and an ultrasound diathermy machine. The night will include a series of readings by writers Devana Senanayake, Chrisnaa Senthinathan, Madison Griffiths, Wicky Eldritch and Christine Shamista Ratnasingham, along with a small Q&A section after each reading. Tickets are a 'Pay What You Can' system.

When: 24th November, 6:00 PM AEST

Where: Hosted on Streamyard via Express Media's Youtube Channel.
