Story

Please help me raise funds to support this amazing charity and help bring hope and healing to the world's forgotten poor.

I have spent the past 30 years working in operating theatres. Having gained a vast amount of knowledge, experience and skills, I am now fortunate enough to have the opportunity to do something really amazing - I am going to the Congo to work as a volunteer in theatre onboard the Africa Mercy with the international charity, Mercy Ships.

The Africa Mercy is the world’s largest non-governmental hospital ship and provides medical care free of charge to some of the world’s poorest people. It has 6 operating theatres, 4 wards, a CT scanner and specialises in treating diseases and illnesses due to poverty and war.

My time spent with Mercy Ships will be self funded, including flights, accommodation and immunisations, so any money raised will help me and Mercy Ships carry on with their wonderful work. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
