We are sure that the parlous state of these poor people is well known to you. It is also very clear the cost benefit per unit currency in Zambia is unestimatably greater than in UK. In other words, the people of Lwimba are in need, and contributions made in the UK and other developed nations go a long way in Zambia. We gratefully welcome any help and assistance you can give to the project. If you are able to contribute supplies, equipment, or expertise, please contact us via the "Contact Us page". If you are interested in helping with donations please click on the button below. We have partnered with the donations management service JustGiving.com to provide a secure, convenient way for you to support our project, and help build a better life for the people of Lwimba.
We are a government registered charity in the United Kingdom.
Specific expensesIt is important to note that many of the expenses of the project have been financed personally by the founding members of the group. For example, they have so far financed three visits to Lwimba Zambia, each for one week for four, one and three persons from England. They have financed the meetings and entertainment of interested bodies in Zambia and all their own expenses whilst in Zambia and here in UK.

Three full time nurses £3000 pa, each. Maintenance and security approx £10000 pa. There will be government contributions to these salaries. 3 EquipmentInitial neonatal resuscitation equipment £7600. 4 ConsumablesThe government have has commited to provide the basic pharmaceuticals but unfortunately the supplies -even to the teaching hospital- are limited and variable. The costs of augmenting the supplies of drugs and providing linen, disinfectants, cleaning materials is not quantifiable at present. 5 New BuildingWe are hopeful that the new buildings for the crèche and mothers accommodation will be achievable without external funding through the endeavours of the local people under the direction of HRH Senior Chieftainess Nkomeshya.
