Tomorrow is #WorldDayOfTheSick, a reminder of the capacity for compassion & care in the face of suffering & illness. We are blessed that we have dedicated & caring nurses who go the extra mile for our patients, reflected in this picture taken at one of our outreaches last week.

Official figures show that almost 25,000 people die of #cancer in #Uganda every year - almost 67 people a day. On #WorldCancerDay we call on the Government to increase investment in cancer services & screenings around the country to reduce the numbers dying. Lives can be saved.
