YTD Raised: £2,370.00
(UK, 241542) Orthopaedic Implants for Malawi supported by: The League of Friends of The Wrightington Hospital Malawi is a landlocked country in Africa with a population of 15 million people. It is a peaceful, democratic country, but is one of the poorest counties in the world. Injuries caused by accidents are one of the biggest causes of disability in adults and children. Hospital care is free, but the implants required to fix broken bones are very scarce, and difficult to obtain with limited resources. There are many types of broken bone, that are much better to fix with surgery. If left untreated because the correct implants are not available patients can be left with permanent deformity, severe disability, pain and arthritis. The bones can either be fixed on the inside with plates and screws or a nail (metal rod inside the bone), or from the outside using pins or wires that pass through the skin and attach to a frame (External fixator). The purpose of this fundraising is to help supply implants & equipment to the main hospital in Malawi that performs most of the fracture fixations in the country. (Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Blantyre) Two trained orthopaedic surgeons work together at the hospital, and would really benefit from help with a supply of implants. Many patients, who would have otherwise gone untreated, have been greatly helped and their life improved, by implants supplied by this fund raising. A donation, could really help a patient with a broken bone to remain active, mobile and pain free. How much of the donated money will be used to buy implants? 100% of the money donated will be used to buy and ship implants & equipment straight to the hospital in Malawi. Will patients have to pay for their bone to be fixed? No. All patients will be treated for free

The British Home.
(UK, 206222) Browse events
YTD Raised: £1,919.81The British Home is a charity that cares for severely disabled adults. It provides 24 hour professional nursing care for 100 residents. Most residents are wheelchair users with disabilities caused by illnesses such as multiple sclerosis and stroke. Some have acquired brain injury, others have been injured through accidents or crime. Residents have modern and spacious single rooms and are cared for as individuals with unique and specific needs. They are encouraged to make decisions and keep as much control as possible over their lives. Providing residents with the skilled nursing they depend on is extremely costly. Most of our residents need expensive, highly specialised equipment so that they can live in comfort and dignity. Most residents at the Home receive funding from local and health authorities, but we still have to raise at least £180 a week per person to cover our full costs. Legacies are a vital source of support and help us to afford the equipment our residents need. Donations enable us to provide a full programme of leisure activities that help people to enjoy their lives again. Can you help? If you can remember us in your Will or make a donation it would make a real and direct difference to the lives of people with severe disabilities. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT
