Driving Change in Rural Uganda
A NEED FOR CHANGE
Set up by Dr Philip Unwin in 2012, The Kamuli Friends charity supports Kamuli Mission Hospital in Rural Uganda. The aims of the charity are to provide funding for building projects, medical equipment and introduce volunteers to the hospital in response to the needs of the hospital. The hospital welcomes all volunteers including medical and nursing professionals. There are also opportunities for medical elective programmes at the hospital.
We work in close partnership with Kamuli Mission Hospital to ensure the money raised gets spent appropriately. We aim to fund projects which are sustainable and benefit the needs of the whole community that the hospital serves. Find out about Kamuli Mission Hospital⟶

chANGING LIVES IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY
Originally set up to formalise donations to the hospital, the charity has since been able to fund the building of new nurses accommodation and a new guest house with thanks to the Mosawi foundation. We have also contributed towards the renovation of the maternity ward and the building of a covered walkway.
In 2014, the charity developed to provide a portal for volunteers interested in helping in Kamuli. These volunteers include long term volunteers for up to 6 months and shorter term specialist volunteers who offer teaching and training. Kamuli Friends supports a rotary international training programme which delivers emergency obstetric and paediatric teaching to the healthcare professionals at the hospital and the wider community.

Our team and volunteering
Kamuli Mission Hospital would not work without the incredible efforts of our wonderful doctors, nurses and other staff. The daily running of the hospital would not be possible without the combination of volunteers and Kamuli staff. Why not see who they are and see if you could be one of us?
