Newsletter – August 2024

The Kambia Appeal General News

We have decided to do e-newsletters going forward, as the cost of producing a print newsletter is expensive, and we know that a lot of newsletters are returned to us as ‘undelivered’ so we feel that an e- newsletter makes much more sense, plus publication on the website.

In 2019 The Kambia Appeal provided 200 delivery kits and 115 […]

UK Government funding cancelled

The Kambia Appeal General News

We were all devastated to learn that government funding for the next round of the fantastic and long running Health Partnership Scheme has been cancelled.  Our friends at THET had no warning that the cuts would be made and are still reeling from the shock.  In previous years the HPS funded all our major volunteer programmes in Kambia, […]
