Story

We are two second year nursing students from the UK who wish to travel to Zambia for 3 weeks to witness first hand challenges faced within nursing care, in a developing country . We wish to help the vulnerable adults and children in Zambia by applying the experiences and knowledge we have gained through university, in order for them to receive the care that every human should be entitled to. Through us having  the  opportunity to work  alongside Zambia's  healthcare  professionals, we will gain international exposure and insight into a side of nursing we are yet to experience.

To make this a reality we need the support from you, no matter how small to help us achieve our ambition and provide hope for future nursing. We need to raise this money by June 2018.

‘A placement in a developing country can contribute enormously to both a student's degree and their chosen career. It offers the opportunity to experience how healthcare is delivered in an under-resourced environment. Students will gain a deeper understanding of things like rare communicable diseases and gain new skills treating advanced pathologies’ - Alasdair Thompson, Senior Elective Consultant at Work the World

Thank you.
