Yesterday Mahela Jayawardene and members of ‘Trail’ kick started 28 day walk, from Point Pedro in Jaffna to Dondra Head in Matara covering 28 townships raising funds to expand the oncology unit at Karapitiya Hospital in Galle. Trail, which is themed walk, unite and heal aims in raising USD 5 million to build the cancer treatment facility. 

This is a sequel to the 2011 Trail SL, the same walk in the opposite direction that raised funds for the construction of the Trail Tellippalai Cancer Hospital in Jaffna.

During the walk, Mahela received a big hug from an enthusiastic fan.
