Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

I am going to sub-Saharan Africa as part of a training team, including consultants and experienced practitioners with anaesthetic, paediatric, midwifery and emergency trauma care skills.

Many of these countries are recovering from civil war.  Women and infants suffer and die for the want of basic interventions and care that we take for granted. Teaching students now, can empower them to implement  good evidence based practice and effectively improve morbidity and mortality. They will in turn be able to pass on their skills to their co-workers.

This fundraising goes directly to supporting us in bringing medical equipment, resources and training.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

It is a partnership between Poole Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Wau teaching hospital in Southern Sudan. It aims to address the needs of the hospital which is dire straits and recovering from the very long civil war in Sudan, by assisting with teaching and training for doctors and nurses. Teams from Poole visit Wau twice a year and have already started to improve the health care of these needy people. Your help is needed to support this vital work.
