For mums and dads

Help a new life to begin safely

Train a midwife

Poor people in Sierra Leone cannot afford the services of the few trained doctors or nurses. As a result, pregnancy puts both mother and baby at great risk - many die. One project your gift could help fund is training birth attendants in Sierra Leone. After helping to deliver a precious new life safely, they ensure mum recovers and baby is immunised.

"The very first birth I attended after training was triplets! I knew what to do and all three were born healthy."
