The gesture is in response to a call for support from the management of the department.

Playing a pivotal role in restoring mobility and improving the quality of life for individuals facing physical challenges, the Physiotherapy Department at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital is at the forefront of patient rehabilitation and recovery. 

However, limited resources have posed significant obstacles to the department's ability to deliver optimal care.

GCB Bank’s Manager, HR Risk & Operations also emphasised that the bank was highly committed to improving the communities it operated in and that health care formed an essential part of a society’s needs.
