Story

I am going to work on a Mercy Ship off the coast of Africa for three months from January 2022.  I am not a doctor or a nurse, but I'm going to do what I can to support those who are.  Please help me to raise some money so that they can continue with their extraordinary work.

The Mercy Ships are floating hospitals which help provide free healthcare for people where medical care is nearly non-existent. In sub-Saharan Africa, up to 69% of people live on less than £2 a day. Healthcare in these countries either doesn't exist or is unaffordable to most of the population.
