Mothers are at the heart of society. When a mother dies, her young child is ten times more likely to also die in developing countries around the world. The surviving children are often taken out of school, sent out to work or end up on the streets with no one to care for them. The Honouring Our Mothers campaign is about raising awareness and funds to help in saving the lives of every mother and child in countries such as Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Somalia, Yemen and some of the poorest regions in the world.

We believe the deaths of millions of mothers and their babies during childbirth can be prevented if only pregnant women have access to skilled health workers and maternal care facilities.

Since 2013, we have provided 93 incubators and 23 ambulances in countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Yemen, Lebanon, Somalia and Kenya. In Pakistan, we also support numerous maternity hospitals ensuring these hospitals are equipped with a medical lab, operation theatres as well as round the clock gynaecologist and GP services.

- Cost of delivery of a newborn baby in a medically-fit environment: £150

- One incubator for a hospital in countries Pakistan, Bangladesh and Kenya: £2,500

- One fully-equipped ambulance to cater for approximately 1,000 patients annually: £12,000
