The
projects under way are
-
The container is ready to go to the school we have built in partnership
with Midlands International Aid Trust
and a number of members of the Midlands URC Church . The school is open and
provides for up to 150 primary school
children in an exceptionally poor part in the outskirts of Harare and is under
constant monitoring by their previous Minister Wilbert who is now the Minster
here in Walsall.

We have formed a partnership with a drug company and that will supply
free to us an unlimited amount of a drug
( £3 a tablet) that treats those
affected by a parasite that is the major cause of blindness in Africa. Some
Countries there are now free of this river blindness disease and we are meeting
up today to finalise plans to distribute effectively in the Congo

A refurbished dental surgery is ready to go to be installed in Kasguma
hospital Kashmir ( I will supervise installation and training of staff) which
we have joined in helping to build that provides access to health care for free
to those who cannot afford to pay ( and keep checking this continues to be
their policy)

We are continuing to fund free eye camps to treat cataracts with our
partner Dr Usman who donates 3 days a month to operate.. ( he travels also at
his own expense.. just back from Zimbabwe and await his report) ...we just
provide the eye drops and materials. Another 180 cases will be treated this
next month ( Kashmir)

The shelter project in Nepal has been carefully checked and money spent
correctly on the 1000 + monsoon proof
emergency shelters. We have now put into place some education support

We are lucky to have a team with Prof Gatrad and Mohammed Aslam . we
are all like minded, aiming to target smaller often forgotten suffering
communities with hands on aid support and a careful check mechanism travelling

make sure every penny is used properly and to the most deserving cases.
