Donations cannot currently be made to this page
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.

Story

<p>Hi, I am new to this.&nbsp; George is really where the idea comes from - he keeps seeing adverts on TV asking for donations to charities.&nbsp; I told him we should choose something important to us and then raise some money for it.&nbsp; He has decided to raise money for "poorly" people and "people with no food", so I suggested the local hospice - Forest Holme (caring for palliative cancer patients) and the Poole Africa Link (providing medical supplies and training for people in Wau - Sudan).</p> <p>We are doing&nbsp;a 11-12 mile bicycle ride (George too) to raise sponsorship.&nbsp; I think this is quite a challenge for a 7 year old!&nbsp; If you feel able to, please donate and support his early charitable activities!</p> <p>Best wishes - Sarah, Steve and George.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
