Help save lives through health information

Alan Fricker is raising money for Partnerships in Health Information

Story

Partnerships in Health Information is a small charity I have supported for a number of years. They work with African libraries to build leadership capacity, support evidence based practice and improve public access to health information.

Last year I spent the morning exchanging knowledge with two Tanzanian librarians who had been hosted by PHI as Commonwealth Professional Fellows for a three month study tour in the UK

It was a great reminder of the valuable work PHI do. I was also prompted by a tweet about #buyalibrary from a couple of years back. I hope people will be as keen to #buildalibrarian

I have registered to run in the Hoohaah run on the 21st of June. There is 10k to cover with a bit more by way of gradient than I am used to so it should be reasonably hard work.

If you can give a little something that would be great. Even better would be if you could give a little something and share what I am trying to do. Or just share!

Thanks

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. JustGiving do take a small amount but for a small charity like PHI the reduction in their input makes this more than worthwhile.
