Learning to Inject Insulin. Most children would be afraid at the sight of a needle. This boy was so unwell that this did not scare him. Most people do not have a fridge at home. Lots do not have electricity. We have set up a store and fridge. Patients that we start on treatment who are under 16 years old are supplied Insulin free all year round

This man had lost half his body weight. He had diabetic Ketoacidosis when we saw him. In the UK such a person would be on a high dependancy / Intesive care unit. He was aware that he needed Insulin but not being able to work due to illness, he had no income

He was given Insulin from the Camp. He was taught to monitor blood sugar, how to inject insulin and how to self manage. The charity will endeavour to supply Insulin for him long term

When users upgrade to a better hearing aid, in the UK, the old ones are often destroyed. We arrange for these to be collected and refurbished at very little cost. They are then fitted in our camps. We took approximately 4000 hearing aids in 2010.
