Volunteering in Uganda

We are developing opportunities for people to spend periods of time volunteering in Uganda. These can be three types of volunteering.
Medical Students in their 5th year are encouraged to spend a few weeks overseas and Virika Hospital in Fort Portal is keen to help. These students can also get very involved in Good Shepherd School and perhaps stay in the guest house there during the stay.
Gap Year students like Rebecca and Naomi could spend periods up to a year at St Zoe's school.
Doctors and Nurses, Midwives or Teachers could also spend periods at the hospital or either school location and not only help pass on their skills but gain enormously from the experience.
Central Manchester University Hospitals Foundation NHS Trust have a number of staff either arranging to go to Virika Hospital or to volunteer elsewhere in the world.
