Shipping industry supports health

In keeping with its mission to bring health care to various communities across the island, the Shipping Association of Jamaica (SAJ) and its industry partner, Seaport Equipment Ltd, last week sponsored the Camperdown High School's Annual Health Fair. The fair, which was organised by past students of the school, saw the SAJ lending its mobile clinic, while Seaport Equipment sponsored the transportation of the unit.

Students and teachers benefited from free medical examinations offered during the annual fair.
