Later on this year, DAR Bjorn 2 in Żebbuġ will be inaugurated and a further 30 patients will start receiving much needed care and treatment. This means that a total number of 43 patients with neurological conditions will be living a qualitative life under the supervision of 24/7 care.

Yet still, ALSMalta+ will not call it quits, there are still people desperately waiting for help. A telephone call which Bjorn received a few months ago was from a lady saying this; “Tomorrow I have an operation, is it possible for you to take care of my husband while I’m in hospital”. Unfortunately, that wasn’t possible. ALS Malta+ will be working on launching a new service!

The new service that ALS Malta+ is working on is; DAR Bjorn Respite. This will be an extension of DAR Bjorn Żebbuġ where patients will receive care and help for a defined number of days. Despite the small geography that Malta has, there are still patients that require such services.

ALS Malta+ will be producing another telethon so that this extension can become a reality; DAR Bjorn Respite. The telethon will be held on Sunday, 25th September on local television stations. This will all be possible, thanks to all Maltese that donated in previous years and will continue to support Bjorn and ALS Malta+.

This is the reason why Bjorn and the ALS Malta+ team will be helping more.
