A HUGE THANK YOU to our founding partners:
The VCCP Partnership and MIG (Mobile Interactive Group)
who are funding the running costs of the hospital on a monthly basis, as well as giving us their marketing support and expertise on the website, branding and social media, and especially to Andy and Ravi at VCCP for our fantastic, newly branded, yellow cycle kits and caps which meant we were not to be missed, wherever we were on the island!
And, of course to all our sponsors for the bike ride:
- Streative
- INQ
- Skype
- GlobalEnduro
- CMS Cameron McKenna
- EcoFashionRocks
- Indigo2/AEG Live
and all of you reading this that have donated personally too.
Mobile communications and Skype via mobile play a key part in the effectiveness of the hospital... A baby's life was saved just before our arrival due to quick communication with the UK. The 5 week old baby (whose mother had died a week after giving birth) had been looked after by villagers and fed with unclean water only. A call back to the UK team and the quick medical advice received resulted in the baby being saved.
