Fremantle Hospital Donates Equipment

Thanks to the amazing support of Kevin Hogan and Cara Smylie (Biomedical), our long relationship with Fremantle Hospital continues with another load of mattresses and theatre supplies donated to Australian Doctors for Africa.

For over 10 years, Kevin has been our liaison with the hospital which has provided equipment to fill many sea containers with beds, mattresses, theatre supplies, and other medical supplies and equipment which are no longer required.

All this equipment is hugely appreciated by hospitals in Ethiopia, Somaliland, Madagascar and Comoros and improves the care provided to poor and vulnerable people.

Thanks also to Graeme Wilson, our incredible Board member, for managing our logistics!
