Thrissur: The Town East police station, one of the child-friendly stations in the state, has started running a unique paediatric clinic on Sundays, offering free consultation and medicines.
The clinic, set up in association with the District Medical Office, will function between 9 am and 11 am every Sunday.
The station compound walls have been decorated with colourful posters, and the room, which doubles up as the clinic, has special furniture and toys to provide children with a congenial atmosphere, officials said.
A team of doctors, led by Dr Jayadevan of the District General Hospital, will attend to cases and conduct medical tests free of cost.
The Town East police station was declared child-friendly a couple of months ago as part of the community policing initiative.
