Distributing Baby Clothes
Babies delivered at the Matawale Health Centre, are born there largely due to problems during pregnancy or at birth; situations that may put them at serious risk.

At this time of year the temperature drops especially during the night, and thanks to generous donations from UK, the volunteers have been able to provide new babies with babygrows, knitted hats and blankets to keep them warm.
