Story

On 15th May, we are holding a charity fundraising event at Dorney Lake.

We are aiming, with the support of our client community, to collectively walk or run 3,500 kilometres – the full circumference of Kenya!

We are aiming to raise £35,000 to equip a critically important new operating theatre at the Dreamland Hospital in the remote town of Kimilili in Kenya. We are pleased to confirm that matched funding for this initiative has been secured!

Donate £10 to buy a kilometre and support Operation Dreamland. Every donation gives the opportunity to source more life saving equipment.

Why is this project important?

Increased demand for surgery: The number of surgeries performed at Dreamland Hospital has increased dramatically in recent years. DMH simply does not currently have the space to meet this demand safely.

Limited theatre space: Currently, surgeons have to choose between performing essential surgeries for children and providing safe emergency deliveries for mothers. This is a difficult and unfair choice.

Saving lives: A new operating theatre will allow DMH to perform more life-saving surgeries, including C-sections, complex gynaecological procedures, and advanced orthopaedic surgery.

We think this is an incredible opportunity to collectively make a tangible difference to many lives.

Thank you so much for considering supporting this life changing project!

Please see below a list of equipment so you can see what your donation could buy.
