By noon, around 60 patients with various medical needs have already been attended to. It is another busy day for 31-year-old Sudanese refugee, Nada Fadol, who has been running this multi-purpose centre since the Sudan war broke out in April last year and an influx of refugees began crossing the border into Egypt. Nada and her friends transformed a three-bedroom apartment into a one-stop shop to support refugees and asylum-seekers. A medical convoy operated by the Egyptian Red Crescent visits twice a month, offering free health-care services and medical check-ups.
