World Medical Fund
United KingdomWe believe that healthcare must be a basic right for every child, not a luxury. Every day we save young lives and end suffering in Sub-Saharan Africa by taking medical care to children, otherwise denied access because they live in remote villages, often over 20km away from the nearest tarmac road.

In all of the villages we drive to, we are the only access to medical care that the children have. Our Mobile Clinic visits each village group on a 4 weekly schedule.
Apart from the rainy season when we borrow a local home our Mobile Clinic operates from under the shade of a tree. We carry a wide range of medicines and can therefore treat a wide range of conditions.
Those children who present needing minor surgery are referred to our Mobile Operating Theatre.
