Story
At FRANK Water, hand washing and hygiene is in our DNA.
Weve been delivering hand washing campaigns and hygiene training since 2005. But we hadnt realised how important this work could be in the fight to stop a disease such as Coronavirus.
Until now.
Usually, our focus is on eradicating e-coli and diarrhoea but now, more than ever, were working to keep people safe by providing them with the clean water and sanitation they need to stay free from disease. The need is the same but our focus has changed.
The people we work with are the least well equipped to cope with this global health crisis. They live below the poverty line and most rely on casual labour for their income. They can't afford to miss a single day of work, let alone several months.
It costs just £12 to provide one person with the safe water and the handwashing/ hygiene training they need to stay safe from disease.
