Fundraising Activity

As most of you know, I am studying nursing and I am fortunate enough to be able to undertake one of my placements in Peru. I am going to be going with the Vine Trust on the Amazon hope. This is an extremely worth while cause and I am extremely excited to have this opportunity. The Amazon Hope is an ex Navy Fleet tender that carries a dedicated and skilled team to rural villages to provide medical and dental care to rural amazon communities with little or no healthcare provisions. Many of these villages have a high rate of infant death and curable conditions, which could easily be helped by antibiotics, anti-malarials and analgesia- things that we often take for granted. I will have the opportunity to gain experience in basic obstetrics (pregnancy/childbirth/post birth), paediatric care (children), minor injuries, minor surgeries and dental care whilst aboard the ship. I also get the opportunity to provide educational sessions, empowering them to take control of their health and treatments. As part of my trip, I am trying to fundraise around £600 to contribute towards medical costs, transport, food and water to enable the continuation of the Amazon Hope's amazing work.
