My Story

Hi everyone!I am entering my final year of a post-graduate Masters degree in Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics in UCD.  I previously qualified and worked as a nurse for 4 years, and still work part-time in the Rotunda Maternity Hospital Dublin, caring for premature and sick infants.I am delighted to have been chosen as part of a team of volunteers from UCD, who will travel to Kisiizi Hospital in Uganda this Summer. I will be part of a group of physiotherapy and nutrition students who will spend 4 weeks in Kisiizi, helping and educating families of children with Cerebral Palsy . During my time there I  will participate in nutritional screening and will run nutritional workshops in the hospital and community settings.  We hope to educate families on how to best manage this  life-limiting condition and maximise their quality of life.  We will also  be helping in the day to day running  of the hospital where appropraiate. Each volunteer is asked to raise  €2600 to participate in the project. Raised funds will go towards the cost of the development project, including any resources and equipment needed.  I would be so grateful for any donations that you are able to give. You can be confident that all money donated will go directly towards the project. I`m sure you will agree it is a worthy cause. Thank you all for you time. Angela.
