Fresh Supplies
A bumper collection of handmade bandages and woolly hats (yes, even in Niger, come cold season babies really need woolly hats!) arrived with one of our friends this week.
Rumours of some kind of Coleraine-based workhouse packed with exhausted church-goers, their hands shaking from the furious click-clack of their knitting needles, remain unfounded.
Seriously though, we have to pass on the sincere thanks of the hospital staff here, never mind the many patients who will benefit from your work and generosity. Thank you again!

What are the requirements? What size and materials would fit the needs? Are there other items that would be helpful?
Anita, if you send us an e-mail (see the sign-up link on the right), Ruth’s mum has now sent us some instructions for how their group made the bandages, which we can forward on.
