Against consecutive obstacles the theatre was set up to carry out intraocular eye surgery 68 Surgical procedures over 7 days, involving removal of dense cataracts as well as managing aggressive glaucoma indolent in Western Africa.

Pleasure to meet other doctors in my speciality. We had good exchange of ideas. Love to join you guys at some other mission.

I volunteered with BLF back in 2013 and early 2014. This is a small charity that makes big differences because it's simple. Your money goes to where it counts. To the food and supply line as prices have quadrupled in the area. Too much for many villagers to afford. It will go towards medical equipment and medicine to protect the local community, the volunteers and existing patients

I really enjoyed setting up the pharmacy and taking part in helping manage the team and triaging. It was amazing how everyone pulled together.

On the outset, my service in the medical Project in Sierra Leone seemed arduous and challenging. However, the string of experiences and transformations had made my journey beautiful, meaningful and worth sharing.

For me a marvelous experience and one I would love to repeat. Great food – well done chefs!! Good team work.
