I am already starting to dream about what my son might be when he grows up. I would like him to be a doctor.鈥�
International Health Partners is a global health charity that sources and delivers high-quality and long-dated donated medicines around the world to disaster struck and vulnerable communities. We want to prevent avoidable suffering by providing free medicines to those in need.
We are so grateful for the amazing support from Radio 4 listeners who have helped us raise over 拢38,000 for our work in women鈥檚 health! Your generosity will enable over 31,000 women to access lifesaving medicines and a healthier future for themselves and their families.
The appeal, presented by entrepreneur and brand founder Liz Earle MBE, shared the story of Nasma who lives in Monrovia, Liberia. She experienced severe bleeding after having an emergency caesarean section during the birth of her son, and required life-saving medicines which were donated by International Health Partners.
Unfortunately, there are still considerable inequalities in accessing medicines around the world. The World Health Organisation has found that women in low-income countries are more likely to die or experience illness due to health complications than their counterparts in high-income countries.
Your donation and support will enable us to support more women like Nasma to access the healthcare they need, when they need it, all free of charge.
Thank you from all of us at International Health Partners for your wonderful support!
