There are moments when loss feels sudden, absolute, and deeply unjust. This is one of those moments.
A fire has destroyed our clinic inside the Rohingya refugee camp, a clinic we have supported and operated since 2019. What once stood as a trusted centre for healing has now been reduced to ashes. Walls, equipment, medicines, and years of service were lost in a matter of moments.
But the real loss goes far beyond a building. What has been taken away is access to healthcare, safety for mothers, care for newborns, and medical support for thousands of people who have nowhere else to turn.
For Rohingya families living in the camp, this clinic was not a convenience; it was a necessity.
Every day, 120 to 150 patients relied on its services. Each month, that meant around 3,500 people receiving medical care they could not access elsewhere. Our healthcare teams provided:
For many patients, this clinic represented firsts: the first time seeing a dentist, the first safe prenatal check-up, the first experience of receiving treatment with dignity and care.
This clinic was more than a medical facility. It was a place of reassurance, trust, and stability in an otherwise uncertain environment.
When the fire broke out, it spread rapidly. There was no opportunity to save medical equipment or supplies. The clinic was completely burned down.
Today, where patients once waited for treatment, there is only debris, smoke, and loss.
The consequences are immediate and severe:
In a refugee camp, there are no alternatives. No nearby hospitals. No private clinics. When this clinic was lost, healthcare access disappeared overnight.
This is not a long-term development project. It is not a future plan.
This is an urgent humanitarian emergency.
Every day without this clinic places lives at risk. Delayed treatment leads to complications. Missed vaccinations increase the risk of disease outbreaks. Untreated conditions worsen quickly. For pregnant women and newborns, the risks are particularly severe.
We have the experience. We have the medical teams. We have long-standing relationships with the community.
What we urgently need now is the support to rebuild.

To restart this essential clinic and restore healthcare services in the Rohingya refugee camp, we must raise USD 200,000. (or equivalent in £)
This funding will allow us to fully rebuild and equip the clinic:
With this support, we can once again provide care to thousands of patients every month.
Human Concern has been supporting the Rohingya people since 2019. This clinic was built through years of dedication, careful planning, and community trust. We understand the needs on the ground, and we are committed to restoring services as quickly and responsibly as possible.
However, we cannot do this alone.
When you donate, you are not simply funding a building; you are restoring a lifeline. You are helping a mother receive safe prenatal care. A child gets essential vaccinations. A patient receives treatment and relief from pain.
You are helping us turn devastation into recovery.
The Rohingya camp clinic must be rebuilt, and urgently. With your support, it can be.
Please donate today to our Global Emergency Relief Fund and help us restore this vital healthcare facility. Every contribution brings us closer to reopening the clinic doors, restocking medicines, and welcoming patients back into care.
