Story
<p>In September 2012 I will be leaving the comfort and stability of my home and work in sunny Liverpool and heading off abroad to work with VSO, Voluntary Service Overseas, to work for 12 months.</p>
<p>The countries and hospitals that VSO volunteers work at are much less fortunate than we are in the UK. Through the hard work of organisations like VSO and their supporters people living in these countries have access to better healthcare and the hospitals have much better resources available to them.</p>
<p>Before, during and after I go to work for VSO I am aiming to raise enough money to be able to make some small contribution to the ongoing aid that is constantly needed.</p>
<p>Please please dig deep help me to reach my target!</p>
<p>Here are some examples of how your money could help:-</p>
<p>£36.40 can help a VSO obstetrician working in West Timor, Indonesia for a week, safely delivering 12 babies</p>
<p>£158 can help VSO keep an education adviser in Nepal for one month, planning ways to get the poorest children to school</p>
<p>£500 can train and provide initail funds to 10 HIV positive women in Mozambique to start their own business, so they can pay for their children to go to school</p>
<p>£948 can keep a VSO doctor providing crucial treatment to reduce mother-to-child HIV transmission in Uganda for 6 months.</p>
<p>Thank you on behalf of myself, VSO and the countries they serve for donating your hard earned money!!</p>
