Students unveil healthcare startup

To ensure the aged and elderly in Nigeria get quality and good healthcare services,  three Nigerian students presently running their master’s programme in the United Kingdom have unveiled a startup healthcare service called Sandfortcare. 

Sandfortcare is a healthcare startup dedicated to offering personalised and compassionate healthcare and support service to the parents of Nigerians living in the UK. 

Founder of the startup, Damilola Olaopa, disclosed that the idea was conceived after his colleague who works as a healthcare assistant lost his dad on the 1st of October, 2023.

He said, “After speaking with his father about assisting him to cargo some goods to the UK, he got a call from Nigeria twenty-four hours later that his father had passed on.

“What is most heartbreaking about his situation is that he works as a healthcare assistant here in the UK taking care of people’s families, but he wasn’t there to take care of his dad.”

Olaopa stated further that there are plans underway for the startup to be expanded across Europe and to other North America countries like the US and Canada. 

He said, “For now the startup is for Nigerians in the diaspora, especially in the UK. We are presently registered here.

“Sandfortcare limited is incorporated under the companies act 2006 as a private company and it’s limited by shares and registered in Scotland.”

Co-founder, Hameed Abdulrahaman, disclosed that Sandfortcare ensures parents in Nigeria receive the highest quality of care tailored to their unique needs, so that the children in the UK can have peace of mind knowing their parents are in good health condition.
