The SHARE CH Project was started by Dr Ted Lancaster in 1985, to make “health for all” a reality for the people living in remote villages of the Himalaya Mountains. After working in Jaunpur block of Tehri Garhwal district for 20 years, in June 2005, SHARE relocated to Chinyalisaur Block of Uttarkashi District, and worked there for two years. In October 2006, SHARE started a process of strategic relocation to a new project area in Bijnor district. It conducted a study in all 11 blocks of Bijnor to analyze determinants of health and development. The Seohara Block of Bijnor district was selected as the target area to start the community health program.
