Dome village has its own borehole, but we need a second for the clinic we’re building there. In the past, to drill a borehole we’d hire a drill rig with its team and a supervisor. Nowadays Nicholas, our Ghana Director, supervises the work himself, making it a lot cheaper. The photos show the clinic borehole being drilled.

We recently bought a foetal ultrasound and a printer for the clinic at Nsuta. A few weeks ago we dropped by, just to check everything was working properly, and managed to take these photos.

Between October 2022 and June 2023, 226 newborn babies passed through the new Mothers and Babies’ Unit we built at Mampong Hospital.
The Hospital tells us that seven babies died but that 219 lives have been saved so far. It says that neonatal mortality at the Unit is 0.003.
