<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">In June of this year we will be travelling to Ghana with a group of fifteen volunteers, made up of mainly doctors and nurses. We will be working with a charity called International Needs, a worldwide development agency that operates in over forty developing countries around the globe.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">Over ten days we will travel to six different areas within the central and eastern regions, setting up triage clinics and treating anyone at all who is in need of medical assistance. We estimate that we will meet over 2000 patients during our trip. We hope to be able to save lives by providing basic medication and treatment and educating families about hygiene and disease prevention.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp;"><span style="font-size: small;">We are asking friends and family if they would be willing to&nbsp;contribute towards the cost of our trip.
