Consolidated Bank Ghana LTD (CBG) has launched the first edition of its Health Train, a flagship health outreach aimed at improving preventive healthcare and promoting health awareness within communities where the bank operates.
The maiden exercise, held at the Power of Worship International Ministries (POWI) in Baatsonaa, saw hundreds of congregants and community members benefit from free health screenings, including blood pressure, blood sugar (diabetes), and cholesterol checks.
Speaking on behalf of the Managing Director, Dr Naomi Wolali Kwetey, the Head of Corporate Communications, Marketing, and Brands at CBG, Mavis Frempong, reaffirmed the Bank’s dedication to improving community health outcomes.
“Consolidated Bank Ghana is a wholly Ghanaian-owned bank, and as part of our CSR policy, we focus on education, health, and community development. This first quarter, we are deliberately prioritising health, and that is why we are here today,” she said.
CBG Health Train targets about 1,000 beneficiaries across three locations, with the Baatsonaa outreach serving as the first stop. She noted that the 2026 health campaign is themed “Know Your Numbers,” underscoring the importance of understanding one’s health status as a foundation for long-term well-being.
Mrs Frempong further disclosed that, beyond the screenings, CBG will roll out additional health-related initiatives throughout the year to strengthen community healthcare delivery.
“As we always say, a healthy mind resides in a healthy body. Health is central to productivity and prosperity,” she noted.
The Founder and General Overseer of Power of Worship International Ministries, Prophet Daniel Amoateng, expressed profound appreciation to CBG for selecting the church as the first host community.
“We are grateful to CBG for bringing this important health intervention to our congregation and community. This initiative speaks to the bank’s genuine concern for the well-being of the people, and we are honoured to partner with CBG on this impactful programme,” he said.
The CBG Health Train will continue its journey to other selected communities to empower Ghanaians to live healthier and more informed lives. The initiative aligns with CBG’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) agenda and supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3—Good Health and Well-Being.
