The requirement for good First Aid would seem obvious to us, yet access to even basic equipment and training remains poor. First Aid training and supplies can help the Gambians respond to daily health related problems and possible life threatening situations. Now more than ever, we need your help. First Aid 4 Gambia is targeted First Aid training and equipment for staff and helpers at schools and nurseries in Gambia. By donating money or volunteering to run a fund raising event you will help our team continue their valuable work. You could also volunteer to join our outreach team in Gambia for a week or two, where you can help deliver crucial life saving training and equipment to those who need it the most. Since starting in Sept 2009 we have built up to supplying and training 60 schools which have over 12,000 pupils. Every year we put about 600 teachers, assistants and community members through a UK based First Aid course. We also pass on equipment to 4 clinics. We rent a compound which employs 3 full-time Gambian staff and we employ two Gambians whom we have trained to become first aid trainers. We achieve all of this on an annual budget of approx £12,500.
