Story

Jan 2019

Our party of nine have returned home safely from a month spent at the hospital. 

The  project for maintaining the electricity supply to vital areas such as the Special Care Baby Unit and Operating Theatres during frequent power cuts is now completed.  Thanks to friends' support  200 metres of vital cable has been bought and buried it in a trench across the hospital site, from generator to SCBU and the Theatres.

PROJECT COMPLETE!!  Hooray!   Cable bought and connected.  Auto change-over switch supplied and connected.  Now when the mains electricity goes off, the generator starts automatically and people like new born babies can continue to breath the oxygen they need!

 Thanks a million, 

 Andrew
