A very high impact volunteer-run charity funding a children’s hospital, maternity unit, ambulance and nursing school in Uganda. The average donation needed to treat a patient is £14.66; that includes some long inpatient stays. We estimate £364 saves a life that would not otherwise have been saved.

Story

I am thrilled (..a little out of shape) to be participating in the Swim Serpentine 2024 event to raise funds for the "Whisper" cause.

Whisper is a very high impact charity that funds Whisper's Magical Children's Hospital and Maternity in Jinja, Uganda, my father’s hometown.

Children often need blood transfusions, either because they have very low blood count from malaria or malnutrition, or to relieve sickle cell anaemia. Without Whisper's care, many of these children would not have survived; blood stocks at Ugandan hospitals can be unreliable

Your support would mean the world to me, and children in Jinja, as I dive into the waters with determination and hope. You can help make a real difference. The event is set for September 14th 2024, and my goal is to raise £500 for this important cause.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving, they'll send your money directly to the charity.
