Thanks St John of God Subiaco Hospital for donating much needed equipment to Australian Doctors for Africa.  Over three afternoons, with the fantastic help of volunteers from the Lions Club of Claremont Nedlands and ADFA, we loaded:

*  46 hospital beds and mattresses,
*  4 examination tables and
*  19 overbed tables.

What an amazing effort!  Most of this equipment will be shipped to Hargeisa Group Hospital in Somaliland for their new maternity wing.

Thanks also to AWH for generously providing pro bono storage space.
