In Malawi, these bicycle ambulances transport the sick to hospital from remote areas. They might not look it, but as a mode of transport, they’re effective, practical and with your help, cheap to get on the road! So put some power behind these carers and help them get others to hospital in a practical way.
In Malawi, communities can be 30km from the nearest health centre. Your gift for the Blantyre District Health Office of a bicycle ambulance will safely transport expectant mothers and chronically ill patients to the nearest health centre. “The bicycle ambulance is helping us a lot especially when it comes to pregnant women. Before we received this bicycle ambulance some pregnant women delivered on the way to the hospital, and such a thing is dangerous as complications can arise.” Grace Lihembe, Community-Based Child Care Centre Chairperson, Thyolo, Malawi
